When it comes to soup season, this is the recipe I make first. I love to use up tomatoes from the summer by transforming them into an incredibly delicious and nutritious meal. Pair with toasty bread or a grilled cheese, and you’ve got the perfect lunch or dinner!
Ingredients
- Roma tomatoes – the star of the show! Make sure to slice into wedges so they roast quick, this allows for a 30 minute meal!
- Garlic – adds flavor to the soup!
- Onion – yellow or white onions work the best.
- Rosemary + basil – fresh herbs are the best for this recipe.
- Vegetable broth – I just the low sodium kind.
- Salt + Pepper – these two are a must for cooking! Salt and pepper with tomatoes is key to a great flavorful tomato soup.
