For The Soup
2 pounds cherry tomatoes
1 small onion, peeled and rough chopped
3 large cloves garlice, smashed & rough chopped
2-4 tablespoons olive oil
1 red bell pepper, seeded & cut in halfe
1 small beet, peeled & cut in half
1 small turnip, peeled & cut into eighths
3 cups chicken stock
1 1/2 tablespoons chipotle peppers in adobo, chopped (use less to make less spicy)
3 ounces sun-dried tomatoes in oil, chopped
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 ounce tomato paste
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 cup Greek yogurt for garnish
fresh basil for garnish
For The Mozzarella Crostini:
1 loaf French bread
8 ounces fresh mozzarella
1 garlic clove
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh basil

1
Place tomatoes, onion and garlic on a baking sheet and toss with 1-2 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Bake on 350 for 30 minutes.
2
At the same time place the turnip, beet and red pepper in a tin foil boat, and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Roast on 350 for 45 minutes.
3
After cooked, remove the skin from the beet, chop the beet and peppers, and add all the veggies to a large pot on the stove. Add chicken stock, chipotle peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, smoked paprika, and tomato paste. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer for 15 minutes.
4
Use an immersion blender (or food processor) to puree all the ingredients until completely smooth.
5
Garnish with fresh basil and Greek yogurt.
6
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
7
Slice the bread into 1/4 inch slices...about 20 slices.
8
Brush one side with olive oil and bake (oil side up) on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 5 minutes.
9
Meanwhile, slice the fresh mozzarella into thin slices (about 10), then cut in half width-wise so they fit nicely on the sliced French bread. Place one piece of cheese on each slice of bread and bake for 6 more minutes.
10
Mix together 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 minced garlic clove. Heat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds.
11
Add the chopped fresh basil to the oil/garlic mixture, and drizzle on the baked Mozzarella crostini. Serve warm with the Smoky Tomato Harvest Soup.
