Instructions

  • In a soup pot, sauté onions in olive oil until fragrant and lightly caramelized ~4-5 minutes.
  • Add garlic and herbs and cook for 1 more minute.
  • Add tomatoes and broth and bring to a boil. Cover and let simmer on medium-to-low heat for 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and remove from heat.
  • Pour into a high-speed blender and blend until smooth.
  • Transfer to serving bowls and garnish with thyme leaves or your topping(s) of choice.

Notes

Make your own Italian seasoning blend: In a small dish or measuring cup stir together 2 teaspoons dried basil, 2 teaspoons dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, 1 teaspoon dried thyme and 1 teaspoon dried marjoram.
Make it with fresh herbs: Substitute an equivalent amount (2 tablespoons) finely chopped fresh rosemary, basil, oregano, and thyme combined for a balanced, aromatic blend.
The optional creamy finish: Once your soup is completely blended and smooth, pour one half-cup of heavy cream or full-fat canned coconut milk straight into the warm purée and stir.
Storage: Leftovers can be kept in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months. To reheat, thaw to room temperature and bring to a simmer in a saucepan adding a little more broth if needed to reach desired consistency.
