Ingredients
- 2 sweet potato diced
- 3 red bell pepper seeded and quartered, large
- 1 red onion peeled and quartered
- 3 tomato medium
- 4 garlic whole cloves
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups vegetable broth
To Serve
- plain Greek yogurt or plant-based plain yogurt
- extra virgin olive oil
- parsley chopped, fresh
- Aleppo pepper optional, or crushed red pepper flakes
- bread crusty
Instructions
- Get ready. Preheat the oven to 425°F with a rack in the center. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the sweet potatoes, bell peppers, red onion, tomatoes, and whole garlic cloves on top in a single, even layer. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
- Roast the vegetables. Roast the vegetables until they’re completely tender and lightly browned, about 35 minutes. Meanwhile, warm up the vegetable broth.
- Blend the soup. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins. Carefully transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender and add a third of the vegetable broth. Pulse and then puree the mixture until it’s silky smooth, pouring in the remaining broth as you go. Be sure to allow steam to escape by removing the center cap of the blender lid and covering it loosely with a kitchen towel. Alternatively, transfer the roasted vegetables to a pot. Add a third of the warmed broth and purée the ingredients using an immersion blender, streaming in the remaining broth as you go.
- Garnish and serve. Divide the soup into bowls and garnish each with a dollop of Greek yogurt, a drizzle of olive oil, and a sprinkle of chopped parsley. If you like, add a sprinkle of Aleppo pepper or crushed red pepper flakes. Serve with crusty bread.
