Gathering Soup Ingredients
Early girl tomatoes: Choose fresh, ripe tomatoes and halve them for the best flavor. These tomatoes are juicy and sweet, and they have a thin skin that blends well in the soup.
Bell peppers: Pick ripe bell peppers and halve and deseed them first. You can use any color of bell peppers, but red ones will add more sweetness and antioxidants to the soup.
Extra virgin olive oil: Use good-quality olive oil for the best flavor. Olive oil is rich in healthy fats and antioxidants, and it helps to roast the tomatoes and peppers.
Garlic cloves: Use fresh garlic for good flavor. Garlic has many nutritional benefits, such as boosting immunity, lowering blood pressure, and fighting infections.
Fresh basil leaves: Blend it in the soup and use it is an optional garnish option. Basil adds a fresh and aromatic touch to the tomato garlic soup, and it also has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.
Chicken bone broth: This will give the soup a rich flavor. Chicken bone broth is a great source of protein, collagen, and minerals, compared to chicken broth and it helps to give the soup its silky texture.
Unsalted butter: To give the soup a smooth flavor. You can also use olive oil if you prefer a dairy-free option. Butter adds creaminess and richness to the soup, and it also contains some vitamins and fatty acids.
Sea salt: For flavor. Sea salt enhances the taste of the soup, and it also provides some trace minerals and electrolytes.
The Magic of Roasted Tomatoes
By roasting the tomatoes, you can enhance the flavor and sweetness of the soup. This is because the natural sugars break down and add depth to the soup when you roast them. It is a worthwhile extra step to take.

The beauty of this recipe is that you don’t have to sauté anything. Just throw it in the oven to roast and blend it up. This is how you get a thick, silky smooth soup and keep it gluten free.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and place the vegetables on the middle rack. Roast them until they are soft and slightly charred, which should take about 30-35 minutes. Keep an eye on the food and take it out if it begins to burn.
Building Flavor
To enhance the flavor, roast the garlic until they release their fragrance. Stir in basil, fresh black pepper and sea salt for a more flavorful and creamy soup.
Blend & Adjust
Once the vegetables have roasted, scoop everything into the blender or a pot if using an immersion blender. Add the remaining ingredients. Secure the lid and blend on high until pureed and creamy. Taste and adjust the seasoning to suit your taste.
