More Soup!

(fall must be coming, I have soup on my mind!!)

Nobody has specifically requested this one, but it is so tasty that I have to share it!  It is from a Canadian Living magazine.  Super easy and lovely flavours.  You can easily double this to make more. 


Roasted Red Pepper and Sweet Potato Soup

3 sweet red peppers, chopped
2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
4 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
1/3 cup balkan style yogurt (optional)
2 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

1.  In roasting pan, toss red peppers, sweet potatoes, onion, garlic, olive oil, seasoning, salt and pepper.  Roast at 425F stirring every 10-15 minutes until vegetables are very tender, about 45 - 60 mins.

2.  In food processer, puree cooked vegetables with chicken broth, and pour into large pot.  Whisk in 1 cup water.  Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 5 mins.
