Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Drizzle baking sheet with about 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Place all of the cut tomatoes and garlic on the baking and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 25 minutes, or until tomatoes look soft and start to char. Once they are done, set aside.

In the meantime while the tomatoes are roasting, heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a medium-sized saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, peppers, and potato and occasionally stir until the onion is transparent and the potato begin to crisp on the outer edges. This should take about 10 minutes.

Add the tomato paste and stir. Then add the vegetable broth and stir until all the ingredients are incorporated. Cover the soup with a lid and let it cook until it comes to a boil. Once it starts to boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer until potato is soft, about 10 minutes.

Add the roasted tomatoes, garlic and basil to the broth and stir to combine it all. Let the soup simmer for about 3 minutes until the basil is soft. When an immersion blender or food processor, blend the soup until smooth. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and garnish with fresh basil. Enjoy!
