45 30 75

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds yellow tomatoes, halved (about 9 medium)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced, divided
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • CROUTONS:
  • 12 slices French bread baguette (1/2 inch thick)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons prepared pesto
  • 1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese
  • 1 teaspoon pepper

Directions

  • Place tomatoes, cut side down, in a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan; brush with 1 tablespoon oil. Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons garlic and the salt, pepper, rosemary and thyme.
  • Bake at 400° for 25-30 minutes or until tomatoes are tender and skins are charred. Cool slightly. Discard tomato skins. In a blender, process tomatoes until blended.
  • In a large saucepan, saute onion in remaining oil until tender. Add remaining garlic; saute 1 minute longer. Add broth and milk; bring to a boil. Carefully stir in tomato puree. Simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes to allow flavors to blend. Stir in cream; heat through (do not boil).
  • Meanwhile, for croutons, place bread on a baking sheet and brush with oil. Bake for 5-6 minutes or until golden brown. Spread with pesto and sprinkle with goat cheese and pepper. Bake 2 minutes longer. Ladle soup into bowls and top with croutons. Yield: 6 servings.

Beautiful balance of flavors in this soup. And the croutons are so delicious, I make extras and eat them without the soup.
