Ingredients

Scale

For Roasting:

  • 4 pounds Campari tomatoes (or tomatoes on the vine)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion (cut into 8 pieces)
  • 12 cloves garlic (halved or quartered if cloves are large)
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt (or more to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

For Soup:

  • 1 cup vegetable broth (or use chicken stock)
  • ¼ cup heavy cream (more for serving)
  • ½ cup fresh basil (loosely packed plus more for serving)

Instructions

  1. Roast the veggies – Heat oven to 450°F. Cut the tomatoes in half and add to either a large casserole dish or a deep baking dish along with the onion and garlic. Drizzle evenly with the olive oil and season with salt, oregano, and smoked paprika. Bake for 30-40 minutes, tossing halfway.
  2. Make the soup – Transfer the roasted veggies with their juices to a pot along with the basil. Blend until smooth with an immersion blender or add to a blender and blend until smooth. Add the broth and heavy cream, stir to combine.
  3. Season and serve – Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning to your liking. Add a spoonful of sugar if the recipe is too acidic to balance the flavors. Ladle soup into a bowl, garnished with chopped basil. Serve with grilled cheese or a side salad.

Notes

  • You can customize the thickness of the soup by adjusting the amount of broth or cream added.
  • For a vegan version, omit the heavy cream or use a dairy-free alternative.
