Soup on Sunday: Creamy Tomato Basil Soup 🍅🌿 

The tomato basil soup from cafezupas is my ALL TIME favorite and I’ve been trying to find a recipe for years that comes remotely close. I slightly altered kellyscleankitchen’s recipe and it’s the closest I’ve found!! It’s SO GOOD and beyond easy!

INGREDIENTS:
• olive oil
• 1 onion, diced
• 2 celery ribs, diced
• 2 carrots, diced
• whole head of garlic, roasted
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• 3 tbsp tomato paste
• 1, 28 oz can San Marzano whole peeled tomatoes
• 1/2 cup chicken stock
salt and pepper
• 4 basil leaves, chiffonade
• 1 cup heavy cream

INSTRUCTIONS:
• Chop the top off of an entire head of garlic, drizzle with olive oil, wrap in tin foil, and bake at 400°F for 45 minutes
• In a large pot over medium heat, add olive oil and once heated saute the onions, celery, and carrots until translucent. Salt as you go, around 5 minutes. Squeeze out the roasted garlic and thyme and saute another 2 minutes. Add the tomato paste and coat the vegetables. Saute another 3 minutes until it is rust colored.

• Add the whole peeled tomatoes, chicken stock, salt and pepper and 4 basil leaves. Stir and bring to a simmer. Cover with a lid and simmer for 20 minutes.

• Remove the lid and turn off the heat. With an immersion blender or a blender, blend the smooth until smooth. Stir in the heavy cream and serve, garnish with fresh basil.
