Tomato Feta Soup
This silky tomato soup gets a tangy, creamy boost from crumbled feta and fresh basil, creating a comforting bowl that's equally at home on a weeknight or dinner party table. The tomato paste and San Marzano tomatoes build deep, rich flavor that simmering time only improves.

📝 Preparation Steps
1
Sauté the veggies. Heat the oil in a large stockpot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and carrot and sauté for ⏱️ 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add the garlic and tomato paste and sauté for ⏱️ 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the garlic is fragrant.

Simmer. Add the tomatoes, vegetable stock, bay leaf, crushed red pepper flakes, oregano and salt and stir to combine. Use a wooden spoon or a potato masher to gently break up the large tomatoes. Continue cooking until the soup reaches a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for ⏱️ 10 minutes (if you’re in a hurry) to ⏱️ 30 minutes (if you have time, for greater depth of flavor).

Blend (optional). Remove and discard the bay leaf. Stir in the cream and basil until combined. Use an immersion blender or a traditional blender* to purée the soup until it reaches your desired consistency. (I like to only partially purée mine so that some chunky texture remains.) Stir in the feta until combined.
