Roasted Tomato Soup Ingredients 4 large ripe tomatoes 1/2 medium yellow onion 5 garlic cloves 1 tbsp olive oil 1 tbsp chopped parsley, plus more for garnish 1 1/2 cups vegetable broth 2 tbsp tomato paste Salt and pepper to taste Instructions Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cut the tomatoes and onion into wedges, then spread on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil, salt, pepper, and chopped parsley. Gently toss together with your hands. Tuck the garlic cloves into a tomato so that they don't burn. Roast for approximately 40 minutes until the tomatoes are reduced to about half their size. Remove and let cool. Warm the vegetable stock in a large pot on medium heat, and stir in tomato paste. Add the ingredients from the roasting pan into the broth and simmer for 8-10 minutes. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup in the pot, or transfer to blender or food processor and blend until soup is smooth. Add any more salt and pepper to taste.

Place flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, buttermilk, vanilla, oil and egg in a food processor and puree until smooth. 2. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.
