CREAMY TOMATO SOUP VEGAN

This soup comes together quickly, with little mess. All you need to do is cook down your onions and garlic in a little vegan butter. Add in the rest of your ingredients (except the non-dairy milk) and simmer for about 10 minutes. Blend it up until smooth and combine with your choice of non-dairy milk (we love using coconut milk for this recipe). Season with some salt and pepper and serve with homemade vegan grilled cheese!

Top tips for making easy Creamy Tomato Soup:

  • San Marzano tomatoes are a must for a super flavourful, but quick dinner. Typically soups need a long simmer to develop flavour – because this soup uses high-quality flavourful ingredients you can shorten the cook time.
  • The longer you simmer the soup, the more flavour develops. This soup tastes delicious in under 30 minutes, but if you have the time letting it simmer for an extra 10 or 20 minutes is never a bad idea.
  • Use a high-speed blender for a super creamy texture. If you don’t mind a little grit, using an immersion blender is fine, but if you want something silky smooth a high-speed blender is the way to go.
  • Serve with grilled cheese because what is tomato soup without a delicious crunchy grilled cheese.

Substitutions for this recipe:

  • Vegan Butter – A great flavour addition to this soup, but if you’d prefer something else you can substitute vegan butter with olive oil, coconut oil or vegetable oil.
  • Shallots – If you don’t want to use shallots you can sub with white or yellow onions.
  • Maple Syrup – You know we love this Canadian classic, but you can use any liquid sweetener of your choice – or if you want brown or granulated sugar.
  • San Marzano Tomatoes – San Marzano tomatoes add a LOT of flavour to this recipe, but if you prefer you can use regular canned tomatoes. However if you do, we’d recommend simmering your recipe for longer than 10 minutes to develop more flavour.
  • Coconut Milk – Any non-dairy milk will do, but the coconut milk offers a great flavour and richness.
