Lanna’s Roasted Tomato Soup

Jump to Recipe

Staying warm in the winter can be tricky but nothing gets the job done better than a big bowl of hot soup, especially on those super cold days. When it comes to keeping my family toasty, this roasted tomato soup is a well-loved lunch special because it’s warm, flavourful, and creamy.

Plus, the best thing about it is that it doesn’t take a lot of time or ingredients to make and can be tailored exactly to your tastes by adding fresh herbs and additional seasonings to the base or adding texture with a garnish of croutons on top.

We like it simple in my house, served hot with a dollop of Boursin in the middle and cheesy garlic bread on the side.
