5 A DayServes 6.
Each serving is equal to three 5 A Day servings.

Ingredients
1 cup onions, cut into ½-inch wedges
1 sweet potato
2 carrots
1 lb banana or Hubbard squash
1 cup parsnips
2 cloves garlic
1 red bell pepper
2 cups low sodium, low-fat vegetable broth
1 cup tomato, puréed
2 Tbsp lime juice
1/4 tsp cayenne
1 (10 oz) package frozen peas
Salt and pepper

Peel onions and cut into ½-inch-thick wedges.

Peel the sweet potato, carrots, squash, and parsnips; cut into ¾-inch pieces.
