How to Make Tomato Orange Soup

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and carrots and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for 1 minute more, until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the diced tomatoes, orange juice, vegetable broth, and diced tomatoes. Bring to a simmer.
  4. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  5. Carefully blend the soup using an immersion blender or carefully in batches in a regular blender until smooth. (Be cautious when blending hot liquids!)
  6. Stir in the orange zest, honey, and salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Heat through for another 2-3 minutes.
  8. Serve warm, garnished with fresh orange segments or a sprig of fresh thyme (optional).
