Bell Peppers

Bell peppers, with their vibrant colors and crisp texture, add a delightful richness and a touch of sweetness to this Roasted Vegetable Soup. They bring a burst of freshness to the soup, making it even more wholesome and flavorful. Simply chop them up, toss them in, and let their natural goodness shine through in every spoonful. Enjoy the delightful pop of color and taste that bell peppers bring to your bowl!

For this Roasted Vegetable Soup recipe, it's best to use red, yellow, or orange bell peppers. These colorful peppers are sweeter and milder than green ones, which can enhance the overall flavor of your dish. They add a pleasant sweetness and a beautiful, vibrant hue to your soup, making it both delicious and visually appealing. So, pick your favorite from these colorful options and get ready for a tasty treat!

Poultry Seasoning

Poultry seasoning is a flavorful blend of herbs and spices that adds a delightful taste to your Roasted Vegetable Soup. It includes ingredients like sage, thyme, marjoram, and rosemary, creating a warm and savory profile. This spice will infuse your roasted vegetables with a cozy, aromatic essence, enhancing the overall depth of flavor in your soup.

Did you know? Sage has digestive benefits and it has been used historically for its medicinal properties and is thought to aid in digestion and soothe sore throats!

Fresh Rosemary

Fresh rosemary adds a fragrant and savory note to this Roasted Vegetable Soup recipe. It's a woody herb with needle-like leaves that you can easily strip from the stems. When roasted with the vegetables, it infuses them with a delightful earthy aroma and a hint of piney flavor, elevating the soup's taste profile.

Rosemary is known for its aromatic essence, and a little goes a long way, so be sure not to overdo it. It's a fantastic herb to have in your kitchen, both for its flavor and its pleasant scent, making your dishes even more delightful. I love to use this herb during the fall and winter seasons to make any recipe cozy and festive!

Hummus

Hummus is a creamy and flavorful ingredient that adds richness, protein, and depth to this creamy Roasted Vegetable Soup. Made from blended chickpeas, tahini (a sesame paste), lemon juice, and garlic, hummus brings a delightful nutty and tangy taste to the soup while also contributing to its smooth texture. In this recipe, it plays a crucial role in making the soup creamy and satisfying without the need for dairy, enhancing both its taste and healthiness.

Eating hummus can lower your cholesterol and is good for your heart. It also has plant-based protein, iron, and fiber, which keep you full and help with weight management. I am obsessed with his versatile ingredient, and added into almost all of my recipes!

Cooked Chickpeas

For this recipe, cooked chickpeas are a hearty addition that provides both texture and protein to the Roasted Vegetable Soup. Cooked chickpeas are tender legumes known for their mild, nutty flavor. They complement the roasted vegetables beautifully, adding a satisfying bite to the creamy soup. You can easily find cooked chickpeas in cans at most grocery stores, or you can cook them from dried chickpeas by soaking them and boiling them until they're soft. Simply toss them into the soup, and they'll contribute a wholesome element to this delightful dish. If you don’t like chickpeas, try using white beans, potatoes, Lentils, or cauliflower to make this soup extra hearty!

Questions and Tips:

Toasted seeds, potatoes, mushrooms, or nuts for a satisfying crunch, dairy-free yogurt for creaminess, or a drizzle of olive oil for added richness.

How long does this recipe last?

But if you want to keep it for a longer time, like a couple of months, you should put it in the freezer. Just make sure to use containers that are safe for freezing. When you want to eat it later, you might need to add some more plant-based milk or water because soups can get thick when you freeze them and then thaw them.
