  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line a baking dish with foil.

  • Meanwhile, in a pot on the stove, bring can of tomatoes and vegetable stock to a boil, then simmer on medium-low heat.
  • Once vegetables are finished roasting, add everything in roasting dish to the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer and add 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 1/2 cup basil and 1/2 tsp thyme.
  • Allow to simmer uncovered for approx 35 min.
  • Transfer soup into a blender (or food processor) and puree until smooth. Serve hot.
