Vegan Roasted Tomato Basil Soup – a delicious combination of tomatoes, onions, and basil, roasted and blended into a delicious and healthy meal!
Of all my favorite things to grow in the garden, tomatoes have to be it – they are absolutely the “be all, do all” for any and every recipe.
You can dehydrate them …
Make them into tomato basil pesto…
You can turn them into your own marinara…
Make slow cooker cherry tomato sauce…
And even make tomato chutney – yum and yum x 100!
You can even turn them into the most delicious jam EVER known to man. I promise, that tomatoes do indeed make yummy jarred jam – you didn’t know that, did you?
All in all, they are probably the most versatile garden bounty you could ever grow.
But lets talk about soup – this Roasted Tomato and Basil Soup is the EASIEST way to make dinner. Cut the veggies, toss on a sheet, drizzle with oil and herbs and roast.
After a quick pulse of the blender you have a dinner meal – bonus: it’s good for everyone, and since it’s meatless, it accommodates the vegan palate, too.
