Ingredients
  

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes

1 can (14 oz) artichoke hearts, drained and coarsely chopped

4 cups vegetable broth

1 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for a vegan option)

1 teaspoon dried basil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Crusty bread for serving

Instructions
 

Sauté the Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and continue cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

    Add Wet Ingredients: Add the crushed tomatoes, chopped artichoke hearts, and vegetable broth to the pot. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

      Season the Soup: Add the dried basil, oregano, red pepper flakes (if using), and season with salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

        Create Creaminess: Once the soup has simmered, stir in the heavy cream. If you prefer a smoother texture, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until you reach your desired consistency. Alternatively, you can carefully transfer the soup to a blender in batches.

          Final Adjustments: Taste your soup and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to heat through.

            Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh basil leaves. Serve hot with crusty bread on the side for dipping.
