Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons Good quality extra-virgin olive oil plus additional for serving
  • 1 large yellow onion chopped
  • 2 carrots scrubbed and diced
  • 3 cloves minced garlic  about 1 tablespoon
  • 1 cup low sodium vegetable broth or chicken broth
  • 1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes
  • ¼ cup dry-packed sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 4 springs fresh thyme or ½ teaspoon dried thyme leaves
  • chopped fresh basil or parsley

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Set your Instant Pot to SAUTE. Add the oil, onion, and carrot. Saute until the onion is tender and beginning to turn translucent, about 3 minutes.
  2. Add the garlic and cook 30 additional seconds, just until fragrant.
  3. Splash in the vegetable broth. With a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, scrape along the bottom of the pot to remove any stuck on bits of food.
  4. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, sun-dried tomatoes, honey, salt, and pepper. Place the thyme on top (if using dried, stir it in).
  5. Close and seal the Instant Pot. Set to cook on HIGH pressure (Manual/Pressure Cook) for 15 minutes. (The pot will take about 10 minutes to come to pressure, then the timer will start). Once the 15 minutes timer has elapsed, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes. Carefully vent to release any remaining pressure and open the lid. Remove the thyme stems.
  6. With an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth and creamy. You also can carefully transfer the soup to a blender or food processor in batches, and blend it that way. Be careful not to overfill your blender, as hot soup can easily splatter.
  7. Return any pureed soup to the Instant Pot (if needed). Stir to recombine and adjust the seasonings to taste.
  8. Ladle into serving bowls and sprinkle with fresh basil. Serve hot with a light drizzle of olive oil and crotons on top.

Notes

  • TO STORE: Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight storage container for up to 5 days. 
  • TO REHEAT: Rewarm soup in a Dutch oven on the stovetop over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally until hot. Or, rewarm gently in the microwave.
  • TO FREEZE: Freeze tomato soup in an airtight freezer-safe storage container for up to 3 months. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
