Tomato Bisque with Parmesan Croutons<\/span><\/h1>\n

Prep: 20 minutes
\nCook: 40 minutes \u2022 Serves: 8<\/p>\n

\n3\t<\/span>teaspoons unsalted butter
\n2\t<\/span>teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
\n1\t<\/span>medium carrot, diced (about 1 cup)
\n1\t<\/span>medium onion, diced (about 1 cup)
\n1\t<\/span>stalk celery, diced (about 1 cup)
\n2\t<\/span>cans (14.5 ounces each) peeled, whole, no salt added tomatoes
\n1\t<\/span>can (28 ounces) peeled and diced tomatoes
\n1\t<\/span>cup low sodium tomato juice
\n1\t<\/span>teaspoon dried thyme
\n1\t<\/span>teaspoon granulated sugar
\n1\/4<\/span>teaspoon ground black pepper
\n1\/4<\/span>cup half and half
\n8\t<\/span>slices French baguette, cut \u00bc-inch thick
\n1\t<\/span>tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
\n <\/span>Fresh thyme leaves for garnish\n<\/div>\n

1.<\/span>In large saucepot, heat 2 teaspoons butter and oil over medium heat. Add carrot, onion and celery, and cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add whole tomatoes, diced tomatoes, tomato juice, thyme, sugar and pepper. Heat to boiling over medium-high heat; reduce heat to a simmer. Partially cover and cook 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to prevent sticking. Stir in half and half, and remove from heat.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

2.<\/span>Meanwhile, preheat broiler. Place bread slices on rimmed baking pan. Divide and spread remaining 1 teaspoon butter over bread slices, and sprinkle each with cheese. Broil 3 to 5 minutes or until tops are lightly browned.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3.<\/span>In batches, transfer soup to blender and pur\u00e9e. Transfer pur\u00e9ed soup to large bowl before pur\u00e9eing next batch.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4.<\/span>To serve, ladle soup into individual soup bowls. Top each with a Parmesan crouton and garnish with thyme leaves.

Dietitian\u2019s tip:<\/span><\/h2>\n

This soup is wonderful as it is! However, if you want to pack in even more vegetables, once the soup is pur\u00e9ed, stir in 4 cups packed spinach leaves or baby kale leaves.
