Creamy Tomato Soup
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 large yellow onion, chopped
1 large Vidalia onion, chopped
2 large shallots, chopped
4 garlic cloves, chopped
2 teaspoons salt, separated
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon sugar
pinch saffron
2 – 28 oz cans crushed tomatoes
2 cups vegetable stock
1 cup half & half
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a 5 quart stock pot on medium-high. Add the chopped onions & shallots and lower the heat to medium sautéing for a few minutes. Stir in the garlic, salt, thyme, oregano, basil, sugar & saffron. Lower the heat to medium-low. Put the lid on the pot and allow to steam 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until onions are tender and fragrant. Stir in the crushed tomatoes and veggie stock. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook a minimum of 30 minutes. Place contents in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour back into the pot, add the half & half and simmer gently until heated through. Serve immediately.
Enjoy!

The tomato soup looks very enticing. All it lacks is a grilled cheese sandwich.

You have three types of onions. Do you need all three? Just curious. I’m lazy and want to do the least amount of work

I like to add all three because they each bring their own flavor to the soup; however you can absolutely use just one – I’d recommend the Vidalia if you only use one type of onion. Thanks for visiting! 😊
