Method
- Preheat oven to 400˚F.
- Slice off the top of the head of garlic, exposing the cloves.
- Place the bell pepper (skin side up), carrots, cauliflower, tomatoes, garlic, and onion on a large sheet pan.
- Drizzle with olive oil, then evenly sprinkle with the salt, smoked paprika, cayenne, and cumin.
- Roast for 40-45 minutes, until all vegetables are fork tender.
- About 10 minutes before the vegetables are done, heat the broth in a small pan over medium heat or in the microwave until hot.
- Once the vegetables are done, add them to a blender. Squeeze out the garlic cloves from ½ of the head of garlic.
- Add the hot broth and lemon juice to the blender and blend until smooth.
- Taste and add remaining ½ teaspoon salt if needed.
- Serve hot with grilled cheese or grilled cheese croutons.
- To make grilled cheese croutons, melt butter in a pan over medium-low heat.
- Toast bread in the pan until golden brown, then flip one piece over and add cheese slices.
- Place the other slice, cooked side down, on top of the cheese. Cover with a lid.
- Cook until the bottom is brown and crispy, then flip again and cook until the other side is brown and crispy, and cheese is melted.
- Remove from heat and slice into small cubes.
