There is something so special about a homemade bowl of soup. This tomato soup is a favorite in our house because it tastes fresh and bright while being incredibly easy to throw together on a weeknight.

My best tip is to use the ripest tomatoes you can find, as they really make the flavor pop. It pairs perfectly with a classic grilled cheese sandwich for a meal that feels like a big hug in a bowl.

Ingredients

2 pounds fresh tomatoes, halved
1 head of garlic, top sliced off
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small yellow onion, diced
2 cups vegetable broth
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup heavy cream
Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
2
Place the tomatoes and the head of garlic on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
3
Roast the vegetables for about 40 minutes until they are soft and slightly caramelized.
4
Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins and into a large pot. Add the roasted tomatoes and any juices from the pan.
5
Add the onion and vegetable broth to the pot. Simmer everything over medium heat for 10 minutes.
6
Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until it is smooth.
7
Stir in the fresh basil and heavy cream. Taste and adjust the seasoning before serving warm.

💡 Tips

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. You can also freeze this soup for up to two months. If you want a bit of extra crunch, serve it with some toasted sourdough bread or homemade croutons.
