Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups carrots, chopped
- 2 cups zucchini, chopped
- 1 cup bell peppers, chopped (any color)
- 1 cup onion, chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 2 teaspoons dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, combine carrots, zucchini, bell peppers, onion, and garlic. Drizzle with olive oil.
- Add thyme, basil, salt, and pepper. Toss until all vegetables are well coated.
- Spread the vegetable mixture onto a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.
- In a large pot, combine the roasted vegetables and vegetable broth. Use an immersion blender to blend until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, reserve some roasted vegetables before blending and stir them back in afterward.
- If the soup is too thick, add more broth until you reach your desired consistency.
- Stir in lemon juice for an extra layer of flavor. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
- Let the soup heat on low for another 5 minutes to blend the flavors.
- Ladle the soup into bowls, and garnish with fresh parsley.
Notes
- Use fresh vegetables for the best flavor.
- Experiment with different spices like cumin or smoked paprika.
- Add red pepper flakes or jalapeños for a spicy kick.
- Chicken or beef broth can be used for a richer flavor if not vegetarian.
- For a chunkier soup, blend only half the vegetables.
- This recipe is naturally vegan.
