Servings: 2 servings

Ingredients

  • 1.5-2 pounds Roma tomatoes, about 6-8 tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 2-3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth or vegetable broth
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt or to taste add at the end

Instructions

  • Wash the Roma tomatoes. Then, slice them in half lengthwise. There’s no need to remove the seeds or the stem of the tomato. Add the sliced tomatoes to a large bowl.
  • Add the Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, garlic, and olive oil to the bowl with the tomatoes. After that, mix until the tomatoes are evenly coated.
  • Arrange the tomatoes cut-side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast them in the oven at 400°F for 40-45 minutes.
  • Wash and dry the fresh basil, then chiffonade (thinly slice it).
  • Add the roasted tomatoes to a large pot. Then, add the broth and chopped basil to the pot.
  • Use an immersion blender to blend the ingredients in the pot. If you don’t have an immersion blender, blend the ingredients in a blender but let the tomatoes cool slightly before blending. Then, heat the soup in a saucepan on the stovetop.
  • Once the soup is heated, taste it and adjust the seasoning. (I added 1/4 teaspoon of salt.) Garnish with fresh chopped basil and serve warm.

Notes

  • Italian Seasoning: If you don’t have Italian seasoning, make your own by combining 1 teaspoon of dried oregano with 1/8 teaspoon of dried thyme. Make sure to still add the fresh basil. If you don’t have fresh basil, add 1/2 teaspoon of dried basil.
  • Adjust Consistency: If the soup is too thick for your liking, add a little extra broth until the desired consistency is reached.
  • Broth to Use: Use low-sodium broth for this recipe. Both chicken broth and vegetable broth work well for this soup!
  • Vegan Option: Use low-sodium vegetable broth.
