INGREDIENTS
300g Ripe Tomatoes
10 Fresh Basil Leaves
1/4 medium Red Onion
1 Garlic Clove
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 cup Low-Sodium Vegetable Broth
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 slice Whole Wheat Bread
2 slices Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Slice tomatoes in half and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Roast the tomatoes in the oven for about 20-25 minutes until they are soft and slightly caramelized.
While tomatoes are roasting, roughly chop the fresh basil leaves, dice the red onion, and mince the garlic.
In a medium saucepan, combine the roasted tomatoes (reserve their juices), red onion, garlic, and vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer.
Allow the mixture to simmer for about 10 minutes to meld the flavors. Remove from heat, then use an immersion blender or regular blender to blend until smooth.
Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and chopped basil into the smooth soup, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Optionally, gently reheat without boiling to maintain creaminess.
For the cheese toasts, preheat a skillet over medium heat. Place the whole wheat bread slice in the skillet and layer both sides with reduced-fat cheddar cheese.
Toast the bread until the cheese is melted and the edges are crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Serve the warm, creamy tomato basil soup alongside the crispy cheese toast for a comforting meal.
