Preheat your oven to 375°. Scrub the vegetables then cut them in chunks into a big bowl. Drizzle with a generous amount of good quality extra virgin olive oil and season with a good seasoning blend. Pour onto a big baking sheet covered in parchment paper.

2 big carrots

1 green pepper

2 big celery stalks

1 sm.-med beet

1 big purple shallot

2 med. Yukon Gold potatoes

16oz. bone broth
28oz. San Marzano tomatoes

1 jar tomato pesto
1 can coconut milk

8-12oz.± water

Roast the vegetables 35-40 minutes until they're browned lightly. Put about half into your blender jar along with some bone broth and about half of the tomatoes. When well blended, pour into a 6 quart pot. Repeat until all the roasted vegetables, bone broth and tomatoes are well blended and in the big soup pot. Check the seasonings and add 1T sugar. Whisk in the coconut milk, tomato pesto and zest of one lemon.

This was really good with cottage cheese-almond flour-cheese biscuits I made the other day.

Ahhh soup! For me, 'soup season' is 12 months of the year. .😊. .Lin
