Ingredients

  • 2 pints small cherry tomatoes (about 4 cups)
  • 1 head of garlic, peeled and the top cut off
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • pinch pepper
  • pinch chili flakes (optional)
  • handful of fresh herbs (mix of basil, oregano, thyme and/or rosemary)
  • 1 1/2 cups extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large pot.
  • Add in the garlic and onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes until they start to brown.
  • Add in your frozen peas, salt and pepper and stir occasionally, for about 1 minute.
  • Next, pour in the vegetable broth and turn the heat up to high for about 5 minutes until it comes to a boil.
  • Remove the pot from the oven and let sit 5-10 minutes to cool slightly.
  • Then, blend the soup in the pot using an immersion blender or in batches using a stand blender.
  • Once the soup is blended, heat on medium-low in the pot for about 5 minutes, taste and add additional salt and pepper to your liking.
  • Serve with a drizzle of greek yogurt, your favourite crackers or grilled cheese!
