I have tried out many tomato soup recipes trying to find one that I liked the most. I always had issues with them, from the added sugars, to dairy which I cant eat, to only using fresh tomatoes when it wasn't tomato season. So I picked and chose the parts I liked from multiple recipes to make my own. I love my tomato soup recipe because it can be made year round. I use canned San Marzano tomatoes, the best tomatoes for tomato soup because they are from a region in Italy known for the best tomatoes, and canned at peak ripeness. I also love this recipe because it is all stovetop and you don't have to turn on the oven to roast all the ingredients. It is perfect for an easy weeknight dinner. It is a dinner you can make in under 40 minutes and is also super healthy!
