Easy Tomato Soup
I adore tomato soup! I think I ate Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup just about every day when I was a kid! I still love it but now I make my Easy Tomato Soup recipe! And I make grilled cheese using my Keto Bread!
Serve with Popovers or Yorkshire Pudding using my PROTEIN BREAD found in the book: The Art of Healthy Eating SAVORY.
Easy Tomato Soup
Ingredients
- 1 TBS coconut oil
- ½ yellow onion sliced
- 3 large tomatoes chopped (about 3 cups)
- 1 avocado peeled and diced
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 cup unflavored almond milk
- 2 TBS lime juice
- 3/4 tsp Redmond Real salt
- 2 TBS fresh oregano chopped
- 2 TBS fresh basil leaves chopped
Instructions
- Heat oil in saucepan. Add onion and saute until softened, about 2 minutes.
- Add tomatoes, garlic, ¼ tsp salt, oregano and basil Simmer mixture about 20 minutes until flavors meld. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
- In a food processor place avocado and add tomato mixture. Blend until smooth, about a minute or two. Return mixture to the saucepan and add unflavored almond milk, lime juice and remaining 1/2 tsp salt. Simmer until flavors meld, about 10 minutes. This soup gets even better as it sits, so if you have time, let it stand an extra half hour before serving.

Testimony of the Day
“When I began my journey with you I was size 3X. I had terrible mood swings and depression. I was diagnosed with autoimmune diseases such as fibromyalgia, idiopathic thrombocytic pupurra (I.T.P.), osteoarthritis and asthma. I had fatty liver disease, high blood pressure, eczema, rosacea, skin tags, and migraines.
I am now an extra large, I have no depression or mood swings. Though there is no test to prove it, I feel I no longer have fibromyalgia. I no longer use inhalers for asthma and I feel that has disappeared too. The damage from the osteoarthritis, unfortunately, cannot be reversed. My low blood platelets from the I. T. P. use to average a count of 30, 000 and now sit between 70 and 80, 000. My iron count averaged around 2 or 3 and I use to get infusions every 6 months. I now average a count of 10 and haven’t had an infusion in over 18 months.
A recent ultrasound shows my liver is now normal. My blood pressure is stable. Skin tags are gone, eczema flare-ups are rare and my rosacea is better. Migraine headaches are a thing of my past. I haven’t had a cold in over two years. I have removed 90% of prescription medications from my medicine cabinet. Nobody can convince me that this is a coincidence. I believe 100% there is health benefits to this way of eating.” -Terri

My brother-in-law recently died of pancreatic cancer. I did a little research on sugar and fructose at the time and it scared the hell out of me. Evidently when cancer cells are placed in petri dishes with sugar and another in fructose they react differently. While the sugar will keep the cells alive, the cells in the fructose went crazy multiplying. That was enough for me. I check constantly to see what has fructose and what doesn’t and it’s amazing what does! Why would seasoned rice vinegar have fructose? Crazy!
It is crazy!
How do you find out what has fructose, I though fructose was fruit sugar? Isn’t tomato a fruit? Should I avoid all fruit? Or just processed products that contain fructose? I’m trying to get my pancreas healthy as I’ve been dealing with gallbladder issues, i’ve passed some stones by doing standard process phosfood and a-f betafood but I’m wanting to heal my organs.
You want to keep it as low as possible. There might be a very small amount in some keto foods (like tomatoes), but not a significant amount. 🙂
The ingredients of the Contadina Thick and Zesty sauce list modified corn starch–is that “ok” in this recipe? What does modified mean?
I would make my own sauce and can it if you can. 🙂
Fibromyalgia has not been proven to be an autoimmune disease. The role of vasoactive neuropeptides in fibromyalgia is theoretical and if in fact it is related to the symptoms of fibromyalgia it is not clear how the suggested dietary modifications would alter that response. Fibromyalgia is not an inflammatory process and the the tissues of fibromyalgia patients do not show inflammation. Fibromyalgia is known to be a disease of the central nervousness system. I cannot make a connection with the suggested causes of fibromyalgia and the dietary recommendations but am encouraged by your reported success with your clients.
Just made the soup & it tastes great. Why is my soup the color of my oak woodwork & yours is red?
Did you have 3 whole cups of tomatoes? Maybe add more next time. 🙂
Is 3 grams of sugar too much for a can of whole peeled tomatoes?
No
