Roasted Veggie Blender Soup with Crunchy Grain-Free Nut & Seed Topping
This is your new five-minute meal. The bone broth can be store bought or homemade. You can also make this soup with veggie stock or filtered water. You can use cooked or frozen veggies like cauliflower, peppers, tomatoes, carrots, butternut squash, and broccoli.
Pro tip: Roast veggies and store them in one cup portions in the freezer so you can pop them out, mix them with broth, and enjoy a satisfying meal.
Optional add-ins: 1-2 Tbsp. coconut milk for healthy fats and the juice of 1/2 a lemon or lime.
Topping ideas: Sliced raw radishes, microgreens, fresh herbs, or the Crunchy Grain-Free Nut & Seed Topping (see recipe below).

This is the perfect drink for a hot summer day. If you are in the north east, like me you know these days are numbered, the leaves are already falling! It’s inspired by the Venezuelan drink, Tizana, which is made with chopped fruit and grenadine and can be spiked.
