Roasted Tomato Soup

Apr 30, 2014
INGREDIENTS:
- 15 Roma Tomatoes (sometimes I use 13, sometimes 14, and sometimes 15 - today, I decided on 15)
- 2 medium yellow onions
- 3-4 cloves of garlic (or more/less depending on how much you LOVE garlic - I LOVE IT)
- 1/2 can full-fat coconut milk (I like Thai Kitchen brand - found in Asian section at Kroger)
- salt, pepper, extra virgin olive oil (but these aren't real ingredients...right?!?!)
DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat oven to Roast at 400F
- Drizzle bottom of a Dutch Oven with EVOO
- Roughly slice the onion - put into the bottom of the dutch oven
- Roughly chop the garlic - put in the pot
- Cut roma tomatoes in half (length-wise) and throw into the pot
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper
- Put pot in the oven (NO LID NEEDED) for 30-40mins (until the tomatoes and onions get really juicy)
- Remove from oven and stir in half the can of coconut milk (or the entire can if you want it creamier)
- Once everything has cooled, put the soup in the blender and BLEND AWAY! (an emulsion blender would also work and probably make less of a mess!)
OTHER OPTIONS:
- Top with a protein source: I like to use sliced chicken or ground turkey. Shrimp would also be fantastic!
- Add a fat: I love to top with slices of avocado
- Add more veggies: I like to put cherry tomatoes on top with some basil or chopped spinach (the more nutrients, the better...right?!)
