We couldn’t be prouda of this chowda! This creamy soup has all the veggies worth boasting about, like carrot, kale and tender potatoes. Light cooking cream is swirled in for extra richness, then it's all topped with cheesy croutons for extra decadence.

Farmers across Australia are still experiencing the impacts of the recent heavy rains. This is affecting our supply of fresh veggies and as such, you may notice some changes to your ingredients. Don’t worry, your recipe will be just as delicious!

Cooking Steps

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Finely chop brown onion and garlic. Thinly slice celery. Roughly tear kale leaves (see ingredients), then discard stem. Cut potato and carrot into small chunks. • Place potato and carrot on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with garlic & herb seasoning and toss to coat. • Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.

TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the veggies between two trays.

Little cooks: Don your goggles and have a go at peeling off the onion's outer layer!
