Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh basil leaves, more olive oil and croutons for added crunch. Enjoy your homemade roasted veggie soup!

Notes
Cut vegetables into uniform pieces to ensure even cooking and a consistent texture.
Sauté onions, garlic, and other aromatics first to enhance the flavor base before adding the veggies.
For a creamy texture, blend the soup using an immersion blender or regular blender. Blend in batches if necessary.
If the soup is too thick, add extra broth or water to adjust the consistency to your liking.
Taste and season with salt, pepper, and herbs like thyme or rosemary. Fresh herbs work best when added toward the end of cooking.
Stir in cream or coconut milk at the end to keep the soup rich and smooth.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3–4 days. Reheat on the stove, adding a splash of broth if it thickens too much.
