Easy Crockpot Tomato Soup
Description
This tomato soup is prepared by combining tomatoes (fresh or canned), cauliflower florets, chopped green onions, garlic puree, and seasonings like Italian herbs or curry powder in a slow cooker with vegetable broth. The ingredients simmer together over three hours, allowing flavors to meld and cauliflower to soften.
After cooking, the soup can be served as-is for a chunky texture or pureed smoothly using a hand blender. Adding heavy cream or coconut milk at the end enriches the soup, providing a creamy finish.
The dish is practical for make-ahead meals and accommodates variations in seasoning and thickness according to preference. The inclusion of balsamic vinegar and optional maple syrup balances acidity and adds subtle sweetness.
Storing leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator preserves the soup for up to three days. The recipe adapts well to ingredient availability including canned tomatoes and alternative broths.
