Stir in tomatoes and vegetable broth.
Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, or until tomatoes are soft.

Use an immersion blender or transfer the soup to a blender and puree until smooth.

If you don’t have an immersion blender, you can cool the soup slightly before transferring it to a regular blender.
Serve the soup with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
