Equipment

  • Casserole Dish or Baking Sheet
  • Sauce Pan
  • Immersion Blender or Stand Blender

Ingredients
  

  • 6 Cups Tomatoes, Roughly Chopped
  • 2-3 Cloves Garlic
  • ½ Cup Fresh Basil Or ½ teaspoon dried basil.
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1 Teaspoon Salt
  • ½ Teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes

Instructions
 

  • Start by adding the chopped tomatoes into a large casserole dish or on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Place the cloves of garlic in the middle.
  • Drizzle over olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Bake at 400 degrees for about 40 minutes. Check the garlic halfway to make sure it's not burning! (It will cook a little faster.)
  • Once the tomatoes and garlic are done, carefully remove them from the oven. Place the roasted tomatoes, roasted garlic, fresh basil, and red pepper flakes into a sauce pan. Use an immersion blender to blend until you reach your desired consistency. You can also use a blender, and then transfer into your pan after.
  • Let the soup simmer for 5-10 minutes in the sauce pan. Serve hot!

Notes

Helpful Tips

  • I prefer using a casserole dish to roast my tomatoes, but you can use a baking sheet too! The casserole dish is easier because the tomatoes release a lot of water while they roast.
  • Keep an eye on the garlic - it will cook much faster than the tomatoes!
  • You can use a regular blender or immersion blender to puree the soup. I like adding all of the ingredients into the soup pan and blending with the immersion blender so I have less dishes to clean!
  • If you'd like the soup thinner, feel free to add some vegetable broth or coconut milk.
  • After you blend the soup, make sure you simmer it in the sauce pan for a few minutes.
  • I love serving the soup with homemade croutons or a thick slice of toast! It would also pair well with my Focaccia Bread!

How to store leftovers

You can freeze leftover soup in a freezer safe glass container. Make sure it’s cooled to room temperature before placing it in the freezer. You can also store leftovers for up to 5 days in the refrigerator. I use Ello containers because they’re freezer & microwave safe. To reheat soup, transfer it into a small sauce pan on medium heat until it’s to your desired temperature. (You can also use a microwave!)
