TOMATO AND SPINACH SOUP



Tomato and Spinach Soup image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Milk/Cream     Blender     Food Processor     Tomato     Quick & Easy     High Fiber     Back to School     Lunch     Basil     Spinach     Bon Appétit     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 28-ounce cans tomatoes
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
1 onion, finely chopped
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, crumbled
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 10-ounce package frozen chopped spinach, thawed, well drained
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil or 1 tablespoon dried, crumbled
1/2 cup (about) milk (optional)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Puree canned tomatoes with juices in processor or blender until smooth. Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add onion and sauté until very tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, sugar and oregano. Simmer 10 minutes. Mix in cream, spinach and basil and simmer 3 minutes longer. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Thin soup with milk if desired. Ladle soup into bowls; pass Parmesan separately.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This will give your soup the best flavor. If you can, use tomatoes that are in season and locally grown.
  • Roast the tomatoes before adding them to the soup. This will caramelize the sugars in the tomatoes and give the soup a deeper flavor.
  • Use fresh, leafy spinach. Baby spinach works well in this soup, but you can also use regular spinach. Just be sure to wash it thoroughly before using it.
  • Add the basil leaves at the end of the cooking process. This will help to preserve their delicate flavor.
  • Serve the soup immediately. This soup is best enjoyed when it is fresh. However, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

This tomato, spinach, and basil soup is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy the flavors of summer. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a light and refreshing meal, give this soup a try!
