My husband wanted an easy dinner so I thought, 'How about soup and BLTs?' When I was at the grocery store, roma tomatoes were on sale and it came to me: roasted tomato soup for dinner! I already had an onion and 1/2 of a red bell pepper at home to create this flavorful soup. It is also a perfect paleo recipe for you to enjoy. Taste for any additional seasonings; serve and enjoy.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 1/2 pounds fresh tomatoes (mix of fresh heirlooms, cherry, vine and plum tomatoes)
6 cloves garlic, peeled
2 small yellow onions, sliced
Vine cherry tomatoes for garnish, optional
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 quart chicken stock
2 bay leaves
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil leaves, optional
3/4 cup heavy cream, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Wash, core and cut the tomatoes into halves. Spread the tomatoes, garlic cloves and onions onto a baking tray. If using vine cherry tomatoes for garnish, add them as well, leaving them whole and on the vine. Drizzle with 1/2 cup of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20 to 30 minutes, or until caramelized.
  • Remove roasted tomatoes, garlic and onion from the oven and transfer to a large stock pot (set aside the roasted vine tomatoes for later). Add 3/4 of the chicken stock, bay leaves, and butter. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until liquid has reduced by a third.
  • Wash and dry basil leaves, if using, and add to the pot. Remove the bay leaves before using an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Return soup to low heat, add cream and adjust consistency with remaining chicken stock, if necessary. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Garnish in bowl with 3 or 4 roasted vine cherry tomatoes and a splash of heavy cream.

Categories     Onions

Time 1h

Yield 3 quarts, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 lb fresh mushrooms, thinly sliced (type your choice)
4 tablespoons butter, divided
1 onion, chopped fine
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 carrots, chopped
3 celery ribs, finely chopped
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
8 cups beef broth
2 tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
3 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced (if using dried, use half the amount)
sour cream (may use low fat or light if desired) (optional)

Steps:

  • In a dutch oven, melt 2 1/2 tbsp butter. Add mushrooms and saute until tender. Remove the mushrooms, and set aside.
  • Add the remaining butter (1 1/2 tbsp) and melt. Add onions, garlic, carrots and celery. Saute until tender. Stir in the flour until smooth. Once the flour has made a smooth paste, add the broth, tomatoes, tomato sauce, salt, pepper, and half of the mushrooms.
  • Simmer, covered, for 30 minutes. Add the parsley and the remaining mushrooms. Simmer for 5 minutes longer or until heated through.
  • Garnish each serving with a dollop of sour cream if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This will ensure that your soup has the best possible flavor. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and firm, with no blemishes.
  • Roast the tomatoes before blending them. Roasting the tomatoes concentrates their flavor and makes them sweeter. You can roast the tomatoes in the oven or on the stovetop.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth. The broth is the base of your soup, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
  • Add some fresh herbs to the soup. Fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, and thyme, can really brighten up the flavor of tomato soup. Add them to the soup at the end of cooking.
  • Serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt. This will add a creamy richness to the soup and help to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes.
