Copycat Nordstrom Tomato Soup with Spicy Cheddar Crostini
Growing up, my mom and I
would end every shopping date with lunch at the Nordstrom cafe and the one thing we always ordered? The signature tomato soup. So as we slowly segue into Fall, I'm dropping my version of their famous soup, along with spic cheddar crostini for the perfect pairing!

Makes 6 servings
Nordstrom Tomato Soup
2 tb olive oil
1 onion, roughly chopped
3 carrots, peeled and roughly chopped
3 cloves garlic, mashed
228 oz cans whole peeled tomatoes
2 tb dried basil
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp ground black pepper
8 cups chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
1 3/4 cups heavy cream (or coconut milk)
Spicy Cheddar Crostini
1 loaf ciabatta bread
1 cup spicy cheddar cheese (I used @organicvalley)
2 tb olive oil

In a large pot over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once the pan is hot, add the onion, carrot, and garlic, stirring often for about 8 minutes or so. Add the tomatoes, dried basil, salt, pepper, and broth. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and let cook for 15 minutes or so. While the soup is cooking, make the crostini. To make the crostini, preheat oven to 350F. Cut ciabatta bread into 1/2" thick slices and line them up on a large baking sheet (you may need to use two). Brush each slice with olive oil.
Sprinkle each slice with the spicy cheddar cheese. Bake for 9-10 minutes or until golden brown and the edges are crispy. Remove from oven and set aside while you finish the soup. Remove the cover from the soup, then use a blender or an immersion blender to blend until completely smooth. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the heavy cream or coconut milk. Mix together well and taste to adjust salt and pepper. Divide soup in bowls and serve with the cheddar crostini. Garnish with fresh basil and a drizzle of heavy cream if desired, and ENJOY!
