New Year, New Me – right!?
About 23 percent of people’s New Year’s resolutions include living a healthier lifestyle. If you’re in that percentile or feeling weighed down from those big holiday meals, then I’ve got a soup for you! This Roasted Vegetable Soup is incredibly easy to prepare, features seasonal ingredients and is packed full of healthy vitamins and minerals. A few bowls of this and you’ll have no problem conquering your new healthy lifestyle!
My favorite thing about this recipe is that you can add any vegetables you like, and with Heinen’s incredible fresh produce selection, the possibilities are truly endless. I am always in awe when browsing their Produce Department. There seems to be something new and unique each week.
Eggplant, zucchini, ancient sweet peppers and cauliflower are the base of this soup. Drizzle with olive oil, and a healthy dose of Heinen’s Italian seasoning before roasting in the oven, and you’ll be left with a delicious veggie flavor bomb!
Serve this soup however you like, but I have a few suggestions! A nice scoop of sour cream takes this to the next level. I sometimes toss in a few croutons too because they add crunchy texture to the otherwise smooth consistency.
The real secret ingredient that sends this dish over the top is Heinen’s Italian dipping oil. This finishing oil is flavored with natural herbs, garlic and more. A few drizzles over this hot soup is really a nice touch!
