Crockpot Roasted Garlic Tomato Soup

PEOPLE OF THE WORLD! I’m reunited with my crockpot! And yes, it feels oh so good. Funny story: when my fiance and I got home from South Africa, my crockpot was the one kitchen item that hadn’t turned up. It was nowhere to be found. So I went around resenting the world for a few days and contemplating whether or not I should order a new one. Then my fiance decides to go down to our basement storage unit, where all our stuff lived while we were gone, and found it sitting out, on an open shelf. Of course.

You guys, Portland is a cold place. Even during the summer we get the odd cool day! I thought coming back would be no big deal since, you know, I’ve lived in Oregon my entire life. I was wrong. My blood totally thinned out in the year we were gone. So soup was the answer! More specifically, roasted garlic tomato soup that’s topped with asiago cheese and plenty of basil. Thank goodness I made enough to freeze.

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.

  8. Spoon into bowls and top with remaining cheese and julienned basil.
