How to Make Crockpot Tomato Basil Parmesan Soup

  1. In a large crockpot, combine 28 ounces canned crushed tomatoes, 2 stalks celery (finely chopped), 1 cup carrots (finely chopped), 6 cups chicken broth, 1 medium onion (finely chopped), 1 bay leaf, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves (chopped).
  2. Cover and cook on low for 5-7 hours, or until the vegetables are tender and the flavors have melded.
  3. About 1 hour before serving, prepare a roux: Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour until smooth.
  4. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of the hot soup from the slow cooker into the roux, ensuring no lumps form.
  5. Add another 3 cups of soup to the roux mixture, stirring constantly until smooth and thickened.
  6. Pour the thickened roux mixture back into the slow cooker.
  7. Stir in 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup warmed half-and-half, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  8. Cover and cook on low for another hour, allowing the flavors to deepen and the soup to reach its peak deliciousness.
  9. Serve hot with crusty bread or garlic bread for dipping. Enjoy!
