This 1-minute light roasted vegetable soup blends hot broth with pre-roasted winter vegetables into a warm, thin soup. Light roasting means cooking vegetables until just tender with light browning, which keeps flavor sweet and easy to blend. Use this recipe when you already have roasted vegetables from meal prep or leftovers. The one minute covers heating and blending, not roasting raw vegetables from scratch.

What Makes It Light and Winter-Ready?
Light here means broth-based, not cream-based. Winter-ready means warm, savory, and filling enough for cold days without feeling heavy.
Broth thins the puree so one bowl sips easily. Roasted carrots, squash, and onions add natural sweetness that suits winter meals.
Which Vegetables Work Best?
Choose soft-roasted vegetables that blend smooth. Carrots, butternut squash, zucchini, bell peppers, onions, and cauliflower all work well.
Mix two or three kinds for balance. Pair a sweet vegetable like carrot or squash with a mild one like zucchini or cauliflower to avoid sharp flavor.
How Do You Make It in One Minute?
Start with about 2 cups pre-roasted vegetables and 1 cup hot vegetable broth. Warm broth keeps blending fast and smooth.

- Add vegetables and hot broth to a blender
- Blend 30-45 seconds until smooth
- Pour into a mug and microwave 15 seconds if needed
How Do You Prep and Store It?
Roast a large tray ahead and refrigerate in meal-prep boxes. Cold roasted vegetables keep well for several days and blend quickly when reheated with broth.
Reheat soup until steaming before serving. Thin with fresh broth if it thickens in the fridge, then finish with olive oil or seeds for texture.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen roasted vegetables?
Yes. Thaw and heat them through first, then blend with hot broth for a smooth soup.
Can I make it without a blender?
Yes. Mash soft vegetables well with a fork or potato masher, then whisk in hot broth until thin.
