Easy Crockpot Tomato Soup

Teresa Ambra
Easy Crockpot Tomato Soup is one of my favorite ways to enjoy Tomato Soup! This scrumptious Tomato Soup recipe is excellent comfort food. It's smooth, creamy, and savory with the perfect blend of everything.Tossing everything in the slow cooker makes it so quick and easy too. Adding croutons to serve it makes it even more tasty. Gluten free and vegan.

Equipment

  • 1 large crockpot
  • 1 can opener
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • 1 sharp knife to cut vegetables
  • 1 vegetable peeler
  • 1 immersion blender preferred (or regular blender)
  • 1 soup ladle

Ingredients
  

  • 54 oz. can crushed tomatoes undrained (two 28-ounce cans)
  • 32 oz. can Italian stewed tomatoes undrained (two 16-ounce cans)
  • 32 oz. cans Italian diced tomatoes undrained (two 16-ounce cans)
  • 32 oz. can fire roasted tomatoes undrained (two 16-ounce cans)
  • 16 oz. carton vegetable broth (see note below)
  • 1 large onion chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper diced
  • 1 leek green top removed, washed thoroughly and sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 ribs celery diced
  • 2 carrots peeled and sliced
  • 1 tsp. dried basil
  • 1 tsp. dried oregano
  • 1 tsp. dried thyme
  • 1 tbsp. dried parsley
  • 1 tsp. sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper (I actually used one teaspoon)
  • 1 cup homemade croutons for garnish, if desired
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese shavings for garnish, if desired

Instructions
 

  • Place tomatoes, juice, onion, celery, garlic, bell pepper, leek and carrots in a crockpot.
  • Add vegetable broth.
  • Add seasonings and cook on high about 3 to 3 ½ hours.
  • Check seasonings; add more, if desired.
  • Puree ingredients with an immersion blender until smooth.
  • If you want a thinner soup add additional vegetable broth at this time and stir into hot soup.
  • Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with homemade croutons and parmesan cheese shavings, if desired.

Notes

NOTE: If you want a thinner soup, you can add up to 16-oz. of additional vegetable broth but I would not add this until after the mixture is pureed, so the soup is not thinned prematurely.
 
NOTE: You can substitute chicken broth for the vegetable broth if you don’t need to keep the recipe vegan. Low-sodium tomato juice can be used as a last resort, but you will definitely have to dilute the soup with additional vegetable or chicken broth or the soup may end up tasting too much like tomato sauce.
 
NOTE: If trying to keep the soup gluten free and vegan, eliminate parmesan cheese as a garnish, and use a gluten free/vegan bread to make homemade croutons.
