Roasted Vegetable Chowder with Kielbasa is the ultimate dinner on a cold night! Oven roasted vegetables give this chowder tons of flavor!
Roasting vegetables definitely kicks the flavor up a bit. Much better (I think) than just boiling or steaming. And then after they’re roasted if you turn them into a chowder? Awesome.
How To Make This Roasted Vegetable Soup Recipe
Start off by chopping and roasting the vegetables.
While they’re roasting add a chopped onion and some garlic to a large pot with olive oil. When the vegetable come out of the oven, add them to the soup pot and then pour in 6 cups of chicken stock.
Let the soup simmer for 30 minutes and then puree using a stick blender. You can also add this in batches to a regular blender, just be careful not to add too much at a time.
Once the soup is blended add a half cup of heavy cream and the sliced kielbasa. You could also use browned italian sausage or shredded chicken. Or you can skip the meat altogether and keep this Roasted Vegetable Chowder with Kielbasa a vegetarian meal.
But definitely have lots of bread for dipping. I’m not even sure we eat soup with spoons around here…just keep dipping in bread until the soup is gone!
