Ingredients

• 8 pieces Roma tomatoes
• 1 pint Cherry tomatoes
• 6 pieces Garlic cloves
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
• 1 cup Fresh basil leaves
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 3 cups Chicken or vegetable stock
• 0 to taste Salt
• 0 to taste Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Heavy cream (optional)
• 0 N/A Crusty bread (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Slice the Roma tomatoes in half lengthwise and place them cut-side up on a baking sheet. Add the cherry tomatoes to the sheet as well.

Step 3

Peel the garlic cloves and add them whole to the baking sheet. Peel and quarter the yellow onion and place the pieces on the sheet.

Step 4

Drizzle the tomatoes, garlic, and onion with the olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and dried oregano. Toss gently to coat.

Step 5

Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until the tomatoes are soft and slightly caramelized, and the garlic is tender.

Step 6

Once roasted, carefully transfer the vegetables (along with any juices from the baking sheet) to a large pot over medium heat.

Step 7

Add the chicken or vegetable stock to the pot and bring to a gentle simmer. Let it simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 8

Remove the pot from heat, and using an immersion blender, purée the soup until smooth or leave slightly chunky for a more rustic texture. Alternatively, you can use a countertop blender in batches (be cautious with hot liquids).

Step 9

Chop the fresh basil leaves and stir them into the soup. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 10

For a creamier texture, stir in the heavy cream just before serving, if desired.

Step 11

Serve hot with crusty bread or a grilled cheese sandwich on the side for a complete meal.
