Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cans (14.5 oz each) diced tomatoes, no added sugar
- 1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Add Tomatoes & Broth: Pour in the diced tomatoes (with their juice) and chicken or vegetable broth. Stir in the dried basil and oregano. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Blend the Soup: Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, you can blend only half of the soup or leave it as is.
- Stir in Cream: Lower the heat and add the heavy cream. Stir well to combine and season with salt and pepper to taste. Heat gently without boiling.
- Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired. Enjoy hot!
