How to make Quick Creamy Tomato & Herb Soup
- Pour the entire 28-ounce can of crushed tomatoes into a medium-sized saucepan or Dutch oven. Add 3 cups of vegetable broth.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon of dried basil and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder into the tomato and broth mixture. These herbs will infuse the soup with classic tomato flavors.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Ensure the heat is not too high to prevent scorching the bottom of the pot.
- Once simmering, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it gently cook for 10-12 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld and develop beautifully.
- After simmering, remove the pot from the heat and stir in 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Stir well until the cream is fully incorporated and the soup takes on a creamy, pale red hue.
- Return the pot to low heat and warm the soup through for 2-3 minutes, but do not let it boil after adding the cream, as it can curdle.
- Taste the soup and season generously with salt and black pepper as needed. Adjust the seasonings to your preference.
- Ladle the hot soup into bowls and serve immediately. This creamy soup pairs wonderfully with a simple grilled cheese sandwich or crusty bread for dipping.
