Ingredients

Units Scale

FREEZE TOGETHER:

  • 2 cups chopped butternut squash, fresh or frozen
  • 2 cups mirepoix, fresh or frozen
  • 12 cups chopped potatoes, fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup uncooked brown lentils
  • 3/4 cup yellow split peas (or just use more lentils)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon herbes de Provence (or other spices you like)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (more to taste)
  • 45 cups vegetable or chicken broth

ADD AFTER COOKING:

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 12 cups kale, finely chopped
  • 1 lemon

Instructions

INSTANT POT: From frozen, 15 minutes on high pressure + 10 minutes natural release.

SLOW COOKER: From frozen, 6 hours on high.

FINAL STEP: Stir in olive oil and kale. (If you made this in the Instant Pot, some of the vegetables should break down just enough to make the soup creamy! If you made this in the slow cooker, blend a little bit of the soup with the olive oil to make a creamy base.) Finish with a splash of lemon juice or red wine vinegar.
