Craving cozy food? Cook up a batch of this creamy Roasted Tomato White Bean Soup. It’s deeply satisfying and is sure to warm you up. Instead of cooking on the stove, I roast the tomatoes, white beans, garlic, red bell pepper, and basil together in a Dutch oven in the oven. This simple trick makes even the out-of-season tomatoes taste luscious. Purée everything together with vegetable broth and serve right away. It’s one of those low-effort and big-reward recipes that delivers big on flavor, and it’s just the thing for a cozy dinner.
Not only is this vegan soup recipe amazingly delicious, but it’s also so simple to put together. Just add the halved tomatoes, whole cherry tomatoes, garlic heads with the tops sliced off, sliced bell pepper, white beans, dried parsley, nutritional yeast, olive oil, and salt and black pepper to a large Dutch oven. Cover with a lid and transfer to the preheated oven. Roast until the veggies are tender and fragrant. Use kitchen tongs to squeeze out the roasted garlic cloves. Then pour in the vegetable broth and use an immersion blender to purée the soup. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve with a grilled cheese sandwich.
