Prick the whole sweet potatoes and toss in the oven. Peel & chop the other veggies to be roasted. Simmer the lentils. Saute the onions for the soup. Chop the broccoli and when it is time. Make the dressing for the lentil dish. Toss when everything is done for it. Finish up the soup, blending and simmering into deliciousness. Serve together. This is a great meal to make in advance and briefly warm before serving.
Roasted roots, wilted greens and hearty lentils are tossed together, perfect served warm or cool as a salad. Any lentils will do but the photo is taken with green French lentils.
Most versions of this soup, start with milk or cream, but we are relying solely on vegetables to make the base. Sharp cheddar stands out as the only highlighting creamy flavor. Other vegetables, such as turnips or other light colored or green vegetables can be substituted for the potatoes as long as the broccoli remains the dominating vegetable.
