• Salt & pepper, to taste

Materials:

• 1 large pan
• Blender

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Cut the roma tomatoes into halves. Peel the carrots and chop into 1-inch pieces.
3. Spread roma tomatoes, grape tomatoes, onion peels, garlic cloves, and carrots on the pan. Drizzle olive oil, sprinkle salt and pepper, and cook in the oven for 30 minutes.
4. Transfer all ingredients into the blender (you can do sections at a time if the blender is too small), add vegetable stock, and blend together until it is a smooth consistency.
