Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs (680g) butternut squash, cubed
  • 1 yam, roughly peeled and cubed
  • 1 leek, chopped
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 shallots, chopped
  • 1 tsp garlic (optional)
  • 1 small roma tomato (optional, this gives a bright taste to soup and makes it less sweet)
  • Lightly coat all above ingredients with coconut oil and season with salt and pepper
  • Organic vegetable broth

Method

  1. Roast all ingredients above in a glass roasting pan and cook for approx. 40 min on 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 Celsius)
  2. Remove from oven and put into Vitamix with a box of organic vegetable broth. Set to “soup” and let it go! (Or High Speed for 5-6 minutes)
  3. Once completely blended taste and add any of the following to finish as you wish…a Tbsp of maple syrup will make it sweet, a small splash of balsamic will give an unexpected finish, more salt or lemon juice to cut down on the sweet.
  4. And remember, if you want it to be “magic green soup” return it to the blender and toss in a handful of baby spinach…your kids will be amazed!
