Ingredients for Tomato Bisque

Tomatoes: Choose a good quality brand of canned crushed tomatoes.

Vegetables: Sweet veggies like onions, celery, and carrots balance the acidic tomatoes and make the soup creamy. Other cooked veggies you can add are red bell peppers, spinach, zucchini, or sweet potatoes.

Base: I prefer the flavor of chicken broth over vegetable broth in this recipe however, if you’d like to keep it vegetarian, you can use veggie broth. Heavy cream adds richness.

Rice: Optional, but adds body to the bisque. Feel free to omit entirely or use chopped-up pieces of leftover bread if desired.

Variations

Add mini meatballs, macaroni, shells, or ditalini pasta to the recipe once blended.

Homemade croutons, chopped fresh basil, thyme, parsley, and parmesan cheese are excellent garnishes on top of tomato bisque.

Storing Tomato Bisque

Leftover tomato soup can be kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat on the stove with a little cream if needed. Creamy tomato bisque can be frozen in zippered bags once it’s chilled. Freeze the bags flat on a baking sheet in the freezer and then store them upright to save freezer space. Thaw the bisque overnight in the refrigerator and reheat it on the stove.

  • In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, carrot, and garlic and cook until tender, about 6 to 7 minutes.

  • Stir in the broth, crushed tomatoes, rice, dried basil, salt, oregano, and pepper. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a low simmer. Cook uncovered until the rice and vegetables are tender, about 20 to 25 minutes.

  • Use an immersion blender or hand blender to blend the soup until smooth. Stir in the cream and simmer for 3 minutes more. Taste and season with additional salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar if needed.

  • Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

For a thinner soup, add additional broth. For a thicker soup, cook uncovered for longer until thickened.
To replace instant rice use ¼ cup of white rice and simmer for 30 to 35 minutes or until tender.

  • If you don’t have an immersion blender, the soup can be blended in a regular blender in batches. When using a regular blender, be sure not to seal the lid or the steam can build up causing it to burst open. Leave the lid open just enough to allow steam to escape.

This recipe makes about 8 cups of soup.
Leftovers will keep in the refrigerator for 4 days.
