Another creamy and comforting soup recipe coming your way! This smooth and flavourful tomato and white bean soup is a blend of roasted vegetables, beans, and herbs to make a hearty and satisfying tomato soup. A bowl of tomato soup served with a grilled cheese is a classic comforting meal. I promise this homemade and nutritious version of the classic soup will make your belly and heart happy.
This tomato and white bean soup recipe begins by roasting all of the vegetable to bring about amazing depth of flavor and take this soup up a notch. The beans add to the smooth and creamy texture while also providing some protein. The nutritional yeast is the perfect addition to get a nutritionally rich cheesy flavor. The sour cream or greek yogurt (if not vegan) adds the creaminess and tang to blend all the flavors together. Lastly, the herbs tie everything together and compliment each ingredient in the soup. I topped my soup with homemade crunchy chickpeas, which added a wonderful texture, as well as sourdough croutons. You could also add parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, and additional basil. I ate this soup on its own for a meal , BUT it would be even better with a grilled cheese!
I will confidently say I will not ever have another can or cartoon of tomato soup after making this recipe. Maybe not even at a restaurant because the creaminess and freshness of this will be hard to beat. Hopefully you agree and you will find it will bring back childhood memories or times whenever you enjoyed the nostalgic pairing of a grilled cheese and tomato soup! I hope this hearty and satisfying recipe will make you and your family as happy as it made mine this winter! If you looking for another comforting meal be sure to try my white chicken chili!
Enjoy!!
For crunchy chickpeas: Drain and rinse chickpeas and dry off additional moisture. Add chickpeas to a roasting pan and sprinkle with salt, garlic, and a little cayenne for extra kick. Roast on 400 degree oven for about 30-40 minutes shaking the pan occasionally until chickpeas are lightly brown and crunchy.
