3 roasted vegetable soup recipes to keep you warm this winter.
I love to make roasted vegetable soups, they are so easy, and roasting the vegetables first adds so much flavour.
Rather than doing three posts, i deciding to combine three of my favourite soup recipes together on one post.
I hated soup as a child, but i can’t get enough of it now. Its so comforting and simple to make, and a great thing to do with any left overs, or veg that are on their last legs.
My favourite, smooth pureed soups include, a parsnip and leek soup, a spicy pumpkin and Romano pepper soup and a cauliflower and roasted garlic soup.
i love chunky soups too so i will work on writing up some of those recipes too.
I plan on creating a lot more soup recipes this winter and i have a few flavours i want to create, so be sure to check back for more soon.
In the mean time i hope these 3 roasted soup recipes will keep you going. They are easy and adaptable.

I love to chop all the veg for the soup and put it in a large roasting tray and then roast it until caramelised.
Then i pour over the hot stock, so it releases all the crispy pan goodness and then puree it and then warm it in a pan.
you can add more or less stock depending on how thick you like it.
I cant think of any thing better than a hunk of freshly baked bread and a bowl or steamy hot soup on a cold autumn day, can you?
Soup is also great to pack and take out on autumn picnics. I like to fill a thermos when i go out to the woods on the weekend,
