There's nothing like the taste of summer tomatoes, juicy, sweet, and full of sunshine. This roasted tomato and pepper soup captures that end-of-season flavor and transforms it into a cozy, nourishing bowl you'll crave long after tomato season ends. It's silky and dairy-free, made creamy with pureed white beans instead of milk or cream.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Roasting Magic 🔥
Roast bell peppers and tomatoes until they have deep char marks and caramelized edges, which intensifies their natural sweetness and adds complex smoky flavor.
Bean Blending Technique 🥫
When pureeing white beans, reserve some cooking liquid to control the soup's consistency and ensure a silky, creamy texture without dairy.
Paprika Power 🌶️
Toast smoked paprika or red pepper flakes in a dry pan for 30 seconds before adding to the soup to unlock their full aromatic potential and deepen their flavor profile.
Garlic Layering 🧄
Add minced garlic towards the end of sautéing onions to prevent burning and preserve its delicate, nuanced flavor without turning bitter.
Acid Balance 🍋
Finish the soup with a small splash of vinegar or lemon juice to brighten the flavors and cut through the richness of the roasted vegetables.
