Ingredients (Fits Perfectly in Your 1.6L Soup Maker):

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 (28-ounce) can diced tomatoes (fire-roasted for extra flavor!)
• 1 (15-ounce) can tomato sauce
• 2 cups vegetable broth
• 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, packed
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 cup heavy cream (optional, for extra creaminess)

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Load It Up:

Add the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, vegetable broth, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper to the soup maker. Pro Tip: Don’t exceed the 1.6L max line to avoid overflow.

2. Choose Your Texture:

• For silky-smooth soup, select the Smooth function.

• For a heartier, chunkier soup, choose the Chunky function.

3. Let It Work Its Magic:

Close the lid, press start, and relax! Your soup maker will handle the rest, cooking everything to perfection in about 20-30 minutes.

4. Blend (Optional):

If you went with the Chunky function but want a smoother texture, use the Blend function for a few seconds after cooking.

5. Add Cream (Optional):

Stir in the heavy cream for an extra-rich and velvety finish.

6. Serve & Enjoy:

Ladle your soup into bowls, garnish with fresh basil leaves, and pair with crusty bread or a gooey grilled cheese sandwich.

7. Clean Up in a Snap:

Use the Clean function to make your soup maker sparkle—no scrubbing required!

Tips for Soup Success:

🌿 Fresh Herbs: Swap basil for parsley or cilantro for a fun twist.
🌶️ Spice It Up: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a subtle kick.
🍅 Tomato Upgrade: Use fire-roasted diced tomatoes for a smoky, deeper flavor.
🍞 Perfect Pairings: Serve with garlic bread, croutons, or a dollop of sour cream.
