Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F.

  • Step 2

    Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium high heat. Add onions and garlic and saute until onions are translucent, about 5-6 minutes. Add tomatoes and broth and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and add heavy cream, mixing to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  • Step 3

    Transfer the half of the soup contents to the bowl of a high speed blender. Working in batches, carefully puree the soup, being careful of the hot steam and the expanding liquid. Alternatively, you can leave the soup in the dutch oven and puree with a handheld immersion blender until smooth.

  • Step 4

    To make the bread bowls, carve out the doughy center of each bread bowl, taking care not to tear all the way to the bottom. (Reserve bread scraps for breadcrumbs for another use.) Fill each bowl about ¾ of the way with soup and top with bread bowl cap. Divide shredded cheese between bowls and place bowls on baking sheet. Bake at 400°F until cheese has completely melted, about 6 minutes.

  • Step 5

    Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.
