    The best part of this creamy, luxurious soup is free from cream, butter, or added sugar. This means you can eat your soup guilt-free without thinking much about bad calories. Moreover, it is prepared using fresh red tomatoes, making it taste so good with natural flavors that you'd definitely want more than a bowl!

    I know it is still summer, and thinking about soup gives me a feeling of fall and winter knocking on my door. But some soups are meant to be made in summer to enjoy flavors from fresh produce. For example, fresh corn chowder and, of course, this healthy roasted tomato soup that I am talking about. Don't you think?

    Creamy Roasted Tomato Soup Recipe

    How To Make Creamy Roasted Tomato Soup

    This is the easiest soup I have ever made. It involves little to no preparation time. Cut fresh red tomatoes into halves and place them on a baking sheet. Also, throw in an onion and a garlic bulb, and tomatoes. Sprinkle some fresh thyme leaves, salt, and pepper. Bake tomatoes in a preheated oven to perfection.

    Transfer roasted tomatoes, onion, and garlic to a blender jar. Add some raw cashews, cayenne pepper, milk, and vegetable broth and blend to a smooth consistency. Your tomato soup is almost ready. Transfer this blended soup to a medium pan and bring it to a boil. Adjust seasoning according to your taste, if necessary. Serve warm with crusty bread or homemade focaccia bread for a wholesome meal.

    Detailed instructions are given below.

    This easy roasted tomato soup involves very less preparation time. Doesn't require additional skills to make this delicious soup and no need to babysit this one when making.

    Helpful Tips!

    • Choose rich-colored and firm fresh tomatoes for delicious and tempting homemade tomato soup. I use tomato on the vine variety for making this soup.
    • To give this soup a more creamy texture, you can also add one small cooked potato while blending the soup. However, this involves an additional step of cooking potatoes, and therefore, most of the time, I don't add it because I'm very lazy.
    • Another key to this creamy soup is the blending process. Make sure your blender will do this job perfectly. My Blendtec Blender has soup mode on it, and it does its job exceeding expectations.
    • Do not use Aluminium pots (especially non-coated) to make this soup as tomatoes are naturally acidic and can react with the metal while cooking.

    Serving Suggestions!

    • Serve this warm bowl of fresh tomato soup with whole wheat focaccia bread or crusty homemade bread or simple croutons.
    • Or make an easy chicken sandwich or Italian veggie sandwich to go with it for a wholesome meal.
    • You can also prepare this soup to pair with veggie pasta salad or Italian lentil salad for a filling meal.

    Health Benefits

    Tomatoes are rich in lycopene, an excellent antioxidant that gives a rich color to it. The darker the tomatoes, the more lycopene it has (1). Also, it is a low-calorie vegetable with fewer carbohydrates.

    To give this soup a creamy texture, cashew nuts and low-fat milk are the key ingredients I used.  Cashews nuts are a good source of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats. Also, it is naturally rich in dietary minerals and a source of good protein (3).

      Tomato soup is one of my all time favorite soups and pair it with a piece of cheesy bread and I am in heaven. I love how you used the cashews to make your soup creamy.
