Commercially produced tomato soups often rely on added sugar and salt for flavor. This recipe uses roasting to concentrate the sugars naturally present in the vegetables and a lovely blend of fresh herbs for a more nutritious take that's absolutely delicious. Great with a chunk of warm crusty bread.
1 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
2 sprigs fresh oregano, leaves only
3-4 fresh basil leaves
½ tsp. pepper, or to taste
2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth

Place roasted vegetables in food processor bowl or blender and puree. Slowly add broth until soup has desired consistency. Continue blending until smooth.
Reheat to serve warm.
