Since I was a young girl, tomato soup with a grilled cheese sandwich was my favorite lunch. To this day, I can’t turn it down. And when is the best time for homemade tomato soup? When you have fresh garden tomatoes from the farmer’s market or your own backyard! That’s why I’m bringing you a soup recipe at the end of summer–you can turn your summer tomatoes into the perfect soup.
You’re going to love this healthy Roasted Tomato Soup; roasting the tomatoes brings out their natural sweetness and tremendous depth of flavor. This is an easy recipe that can be a part of your easy weeknight dinners rotation, perfect for back to school time.
Recipe Ingredients–What You Need
Fresh ingredients work together to make one of my favorite soups ever. Here’s what you’ll need!
3 lbs Fresh Tomatoes
Many different kind of tomatoes can be used for this recipe.Plum tomatoes and Roma tomatoes often offer the best flavor, but cherry tomatoes, grape tomatoes, globe tomatoes, and heirloom tomatoes can all be used here. Look for ripe tomatoes.
1 Yellow Onion
Yellow onions have a sweet flavor when roasted that compliments the tomatoes here.
3 Cloves of Garlic
Roasted garlic adds more depth of flavor to to our soup.
2 tablespoons of Olive Oil
Olive oil is used when roasting the vegetables and gives flavor and richness.
3 tablespoons Tomato Paste
Tomato paste deepens the tomato flavor. This is extra helpful if you’re using regular, grocery store tomatoes as they can lack flavor; tomato paste will help achieve a rich flavor.
1-2 cups Vegetable Broth
For a thicker soup, use 1 cup broth, for a thinner soup, use 2 cups. Chicken broth or chicken stock can also be used here.
Salt and Pepper
We will season the vegetables before roasting.
1/3 cup Fresh Basil Leaves
Tomato + basil = the best tomato soup so I had to include basil in this recipe.
1/3 cup Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese
Parmesan cheese compliments the flavor profile of this soup perfectly.
