  • 2-28 oz. cans San Marzano tomatoes
  • 4 cups fresh tomatoes diced
  • 3 large carrots peeled and chopped
  • 2 celery stalks chopped
  • 2 medium sweet onions chopped
  • 4 whole cloves of garlic minced
  • 1 tsp. sea salt more if desired
  • Freshly ground pepper to taste

  • 1 1/2 cups half and half cream
  • Freshly grated Parmesan optional

Instructions
 

  • Place all the ingredients except for the cream and Parmesan into a slow cooker. Cook on low for 5-7 hours. The veggies should be soft enough to puree at this point.
