Notes

Tips

  • Try different fresh tomatoes: You can use any fresh tomatoes you have on hand, like cherry or grape tomatoes. They’ll add a bit of sweetness to your soup, making it even more delicious!
  • Boost the garlic flavor: If you love garlic, feel free to add more cloves when roasting. Roasting brings out a sweet flavor, so toss in a few extra whole garlic cloves along with your tomatoes for a richer taste.
  • Adjust the soup’s thickness: Play around with the amount of bone broth you use to get your preferred thickness. Add less for a heartier soup or more for a lighter one. You can also blend it a bit longer if you want a smoother texture!
  • Make it fun for kids: Use fun-shaped pasta to make the soup more exciting for kids. They’ll love the shapes, and you can let them help put their bowls together. It’s a fun way to get them involved in mealtime!

Storage

Refrigeration
To store your roasted tomato soup in the refrigerator, let it cool to room temperature first. Then, transfer it to an airtight container. It will stay fresh for about 4 to 5 days. When you’re ready to enjoy it again, just reheat it on the stovetop or in the microwave until it's heated through. If you’ve added pasta, consider storing it separately to prevent it from getting mushy.
Freezing
For longer storage, you can freeze your roasted tomato soup. Allow the soup to cool completely, then pour it into freezer-safe containers or zip-top freezer bags, leaving some space at the top for expansion. The soup can be frozen for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to eat, thaw it overnight in the refrigerator, then reheat on the stovetop. If you like, you can add a splash of cream or fresh herbs before serving to refresh the flavor.
