Easy Roasted Tomato Pesto Soup image

I made this up and was so pleased at how good and easy to prepare it was, I wanted to share it. You can mix the variety of tomatoes you use. If all you have is hot house tomatoes, roasting them is a great way to bring out some flavor. You can adjust the amount of garlic, but more is better. I used prepared basil pesto sauce, but you can use your own. You can use any heart healthy oil.

Tips:

  • Select ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will greatly impact the taste of your soup. Choose tomatoes that are deep red and have a sweet, slightly tangy aroma.
  • Roast the tomatoes before blending: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and sweetness. This step is essential for a rich, flavorful soup.
  • Use fresh basil: Fresh basil is key to a great pesto. If you don't have fresh basil, you can use dried basil, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: When roasting the tomatoes, make sure they are in a single layer on the baking sheet. This will help them roast evenly and prevent them from steaming.
  • Season to taste: Once the soup is blended, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes.

Conclusion:

This easy roasted tomato pesto soup is a delicious and satisfying meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. The soup can be made ahead of time and reheated when you're ready to serve. Serve it with a side of crusty bread or a green salad for a complete meal.
