Ingredients

  • 1 pound Sweet Potatoes diced
  • 12 oz Carrots peeled and diced
  • 12 oz Turnips peeled and diced
  • 2 bunches about 8 oz Radishes, halved
  • 2 Tablespoons 32g Olive Oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 Red Onion peeled and quartered
  • 6 cloves Garlic peeled
  • 2 teaspoons Fresh Thyme Leaves

For the Soup

  • 4 cups Low Sodium Chicken Broth*
  • 2 cups Water
  • 4 oz Parmesan or Pecorino Romano grated
  • 2-3 teaspoons Kosher Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Toss the sweet potatoes, carrots, turnips, and radishes in the olive oil and season with black pepper. Bake on a half sheet pan in a 425ºF oven for 30 minutes.
  • Add the red onion, garlic, and thyme to the baking sheet and stir everything together. Bake an additional 20-25 minutes until the veggies are tender and browning around the edges.
  • Transfer the veggies to a soup pot over medium heat with the chicken broth, using an immersion blender until smooth. (You can also transfer to a food processor or blender with some of the chicken broth then transfer to a pot with the remaining broth and water.)
  • Add the water and bring everything up to a boil before reducing to a simmer for 5-10 minutes. Stir in the parmesan and salt/pepper to taste before serving.

Notes

*I used Kettle & Fire Chicken Bone Broth, which boosts the protein content. With regular reduced sodium chicken broth, each serving has 7.5g of protein.
