Notes
- Nutritional Info – Please remember that the nutritional information provided is only a rough estimate and can vary greatly based on the products used.
- I roasted all the ingredients together at a time in the oven. Alternatively, you can roast just tomatoes, and garlic in the oven and roast onions separately on the stovetop or if you have left-over caramelized onions stored. This method will give you perfectly caramelized onions to make rich soup.
- To make the soup creamier, you can add cream or milk.
