Preparation
- 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 and sprinkle with 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 or microwave.
- Once the vegetables are done, add them to a blender. Squeeze out the garlic cloves from half of the head of garlic and add to the blender.
- Add the hot broth and lemon juice to the blender and blend until smooth. Taste and add remaining ½ teaspoon salt if needed.
Serving
- Serve hot with grilled cheese or grilled cheese croutons.
- To make grilled cheese croutons, melt butter in a pan over medium low heat. Toast the bread until golden brown.
- Flip one slice over, add cheese slices on the caramelized side, and top with the other slice, cooked side down.
- Cover with a lid and cook until both sides are brown and crispy, and cheese is melted. Remove from heat and slice into small cubes.
