Ingredients
- 10 ripe tomatoes chopped into 4’s
- 1 large yellow onion quartered
- 1 red bell pepper quartered
- 2 cloves garlic
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- Red chili pepper flakes optional, for heat
- 1 tsp Rosemary
- 1 tsp Thyme
- 1 tsp Basil
- 2 cups Chicken stock or vegetable broth for vegetarian version
- ½ block Garlic & Herb Boursin cheese
- ½ cup Heavy cream
Instructions
- Roast the vegetables: Preheat your oven to 400.° Arrange the chopped tomatoes, onion, red bell pepper, and garlic cloves on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper. Toss everything well to coat.
- Bake: Roast for about 40-50 minutes, or until the tomatoes and onions are tender and slightly charred on the edges.
- Add seasoning: Once the veggies are done roasting, transfer them to a large pot. Add the rosemary, thyme, basil, and red chili flakes. Stir everything together to let the herbs warm up and release their aroma.
- Blend the soup: Pour in the chicken stock and use an immersion blender to puree until smooth. (Alternatively, transfer to a blender in batches and blend until creamy, then return to the pot.)
- Make it creamy: Stir in the Boursin cheese and heavy cream. Simmer over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until everything is well combined and velvety smooth.
- Taste and adjust: Add more salt, pepper, or herbs if needed. If you prefer a thinner consistency, add a bit more stock or cream.
- Serve: Ladle into bowls and top with a drizzle of olive oil, fresh basil, or cracked black pepper. Serve with a grilled cheese sandwich for the perfect pairing!
