Servings: 7
Prep time: 15 minutes or less Total time: 1 hour or less
Ingredients:
- 3 carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 small butternut squash, peeled and seeded, cut into 1 1/4-inch pieces
- 1 small sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1 1/4 inch pieces
- 1 small sweet onion, peeled and cut into 1 1/4 inch pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 5 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth or vegetable broth, heated
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
2. On two foil-lined, rimmed baking sheets, combine the carrots, squash, sweet potato, and onion. Drizzle with oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 40 to 50 minutes, or until very tender and slightly charred, tossing every 15 minutes.
3. Transfer to a food processor and add 3 cups of the warmed broth. Blend until smooth, adding more of the broth to achieve desired consistency. (You may need to do this step in batches or transfer the mixture to a large bowl before adding all the broth.)
