I know, I know. I JUST posted a couple of patio drinks last week and was excited about the warm weather.  But in our house, soup is a year round meal....especially tomato. I've posted my roasted tomato and pepper soup before,  but this one is a bit different!  Since the twins will be on summer break soon, I'm stocking up the freezer with bread, muffins and soup. Mmm, mmm!

Quick tip: how to roast garlic

Garlic is super cheap right now and one of the best ways to enjoy it is roasting it!

Your house will smell amazing.  Plus it will keep the vampires away.  Maybe even the neighbor kids.  I'm kidding....kind of.

What do you do with it?

Add it to pasta, make hummus or add it to your favorite dips.  I put it in my creamy pesto sauce and it adds an amazing flavor to it.

You can roast garlic in 4 simple steps!

1. Chop off the top of the garlic.  Leaving the root end keeps it together.
2. Place on foil, add some EVOO and salt and pepper.
3. Wrap in foil and roast for 35-35 minutes at 350.  When it turns golden, it's done.
4. Let cool and squeeze out of clove.  I store some in the fridge and the rest in a bit of EVOO in the freezer.
