Tomato Basil Soup Recipe.

Ingredients:

2 1/2 pounds roma tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
1/3 cup chopped carrots
4 garlic cloves, chopped
3 cups vegetable broth
1 TBSP balsamic vinegar
1 TSP thyme leaves
1 loose-packed cup basil leaves, more for garnish
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Recipe Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the tomatoes cut-side up on the baking sheet, drizzle with 2 TBSPs of the olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Roast for 1 hour or until the edges just start to shrivel and the insides are still juicy.
Heat the remaining 2 TBSPs of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the onions, carrots, garlic, and 1/2 TSP salt and cook until soft, about 8 minutes.
Stir in the tomatoes, vegetable broth, vinegar, and thyme leaves and simmer for 20 minutes.
Let cool slightly and pour the soup into a blender, working in batches if necessary.
Blend until smooth.
Add the basil and pulse until combined.
Garnish the soup with basil leaves and serve with crusty bread.
