cherry tomato soup recipe

I love making homemade tomato soup with my garden ripe tomatoes! A tasty, hot soup warms you up makes you feel good inside! Plus, it’s a great way to use up garden tomatoes during tomato season.

This soup is similar to my Creamy Cherry Tomato Soup except that recipe has cream, although it can be omitted if you want to make it non-dairy. As a matter of fact, you could roast a whole bunch of cherry tomatoes and use some to make the soup and some for the tomato sauce, which can be frozen for later use.

Making your own soup, you can control the sodium, quality of ingredients and omit the preservatives. It’s healthier than canned soup and taste much better too. You’re going to love this recipe! It’s the best tomato soup.

A good tomato soup can’t be understated. It’s comforting and delicious. Of course, it would be perfectly paired with your favorite grilled cheese sandwich but I have some other serving options below.

Cherry Tomato Soup Recipe

Roasted Cherry Tomato Soup tastes so FRESH! It’s very simple to make too. It starts with vine ripe cherry tomatoes. Garden tomatoes will be spectacular in this recipe but, you can buy them at the grocery store or farmers market too and still make a delicious soup.

Some years depending on the weather, I get summer tomatoes from my home vegetable garden as late as the middle of October living in Pennsylvania, which isn’t the warmest of states in the fall.

Ingredients

cherry tomatoes
extra virgin olive oil
garlic cloves
fresh basil
chicken broth or vegetable broth
salt and black pepper to taste

First, preheat oven to 425F.

Then, add the cherry tomatoes to a baking sheet. You’ll add the garlic cloves, salt and black pepper, and EVOO.

Then, roast them in the oven.

Then, put the roasted mixture with all of the juices plus the fresh basil into a large bowl and use an immersion blender (affiliate link) or stand up blender to puree it until creamy.

Next, stir in the chicken broth (or vegetable broth if you prefer) and put it in a large pot and warm it up on medium-high heat for few minutes. Add additional salt and black pepper if you think it needs it.

I like using my immersion blender because it’s easier clean up than using my stand up blender for recipes like this but, you can also use it to make something as common as mashed potatoes.

This soup is super simple and tastes so incredibly good! It’s a great way to use up garden cherry tomatoes.

Substitutions and additions

If you don’t like tomato skin and/or seeds in the soup, use a strainer (affiliate link) to remove it before adding the cream, broth, basil, salt and pepper.
Use grape tomatoes if cherry tomatoes aren’t available.
Add a quartered, peeled onion or chopped onion to the baking pan before roasting.

What to Serve with Tomato Soup

Grilled cheese sandwiches are perfect with tomato soup but, so are chicken sandwiches. A BLT or green salad pairs well with it too.

Serve it with a drizzle of olive oil, croutons, or grated parmesan cheese.

Leftover Soup

Put leftover soup in an airtight container and refrigerate it for days or freeze it for months in freezer-safe containers.

This soup is perfect to make in September when the temperature is dropping and garden tomatoes (and basil too) are still producing the end of the crop. But, you can buy cherry tomatoes throughout the colder months and still make this tomato basil soup.
