Doesn't work
The direction are vague 1st off. "Combine all ingredients and spread out on a roasting pan." It does not say to oil the ingredients but I did bc dry roasting doesn't seem like a good Idea, not at 400º for 40 min. Afterwards, there's no liquid. All the ingredients are too small a volume. I have the most advanced Vitamix series as well. I'm kind of shocked such an untested recipe is even on the site. This is a blender not a food processor. I ended up adding 8 oz water to get everything to blend smooth.

I liked it!
knowing I would be the only one to eat this I cut the ingredients by 1/4. I also added a red pepper and 1/4 cup water instead of the oil. I put everything in my instant pot on pressure cook high for 5 mins. Then poured it all in the Vitamix and blend until soup. I did add a tablespoon nut milk to thin it and you could add more if you like. I topped it with a sprinkle of smoked paprika and pine nuts. Only thing I would change next time is leave out the ginger, had plenty of flavor without it.
