Roast Tomato & Zucchini Soup

Ah soup, just one of the many delicious wonders of the food world. There’s not much better than a warm bowl of soup on a cold day, a light vegetable broth when spring vegetables are in season or a spicy laksa or bowl of ramen – just because. Soups can be comforting, bold, refreshing, hearty or light but always, always delicious. There really is a soup for all occasions. It’s amazing that you can put so many different flavours into a soup. And I love that you can eat so many things with your soup. I guess you could say I just love my soup! And this Roast Tomato & Zucchini Soup is one of my absolute favourites!

I love that it is extremely simple to make yet the flavours are huge. You want to get the ripest tomatoes you can as well as this will provide the sweetest roast tomatoes for the soup possible. Although if your tomatoes are a little lacking, a teaspoon of sugar sprinkled over them before roasting will make a huge difference!

I was inspired to make a batch of this Roast Tomato & Zucchini Soup just yesterday. The tomatoes from my veggie garden were starting to take over the kitchen bench. I knew they needed using up but I wanted something quick and tasty I could cook whilst looking after the girls at the same time. So soup time it was!

We ate the soup for dinner with cheese toasties made on an olive sourdough. It’s delicious with a spoon of sour cream added to the the soup before serving. Top with Parmesan cheese, have fresh, crusty bread & cheese on the side or even just as is. I promise – this soup is delicious any which way you serve it!
