  • Salt
  • Black pepper
  • Cannellini beans
  • Vegetable broth
  • Nutritional yeast

Method

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven. While the temperature isn't specified, a moderate heat of 400°F (200°C) is suitable for roasting these vegetables.

  2. 2

    Prepare the vegetables. Halve the Roma tomatoes and red bell peppers. Slice the red onion into thick rounds. Cut the tops off the heads of garlic to expose the cloves.

  3. 3

    Arrange all the vegetables on a baking sheet: Roma tomato halves (cut-side up), cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper halves, red onion slices, and the heads of garlic.

  4. 4

    Drizzle the vegetables generously with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast until the vegetables are soft, blistered, and lightly browned. This typically takes 30-40 minutes.

  6. 6

    Remove the tray from the oven.

  7. 7

    Transfer the roasted Roma tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, red bell peppers, and red onion to a blender.

  8. 8

    Squeeze the soft, roasted garlic cloves out of their skins and into the blender.

  9. 9

    Add the cooked cannellini beans to the blender.

  10. 10

    Pour in the nutritional yeast and dried herbs.

  11. 11

    Pour the vegetable broth into the blender.

  12. 12

    Blend on high speed until the soup is completely smooth and creamy.

  13. 13

    Pour the blended soup into a pot and heat gently on the stovetop until warmed through.

  14. 14

    Serve the soup warm, garnished with a swirl of cream and fresh basil leaves, alongside a grilled cheese sandwich for dipping.
