Classic Easy Tomato Soup

This Classic Easy Tomato Soup, is Easy and Delicious to whip up.  A soup that is perfect for all seasons, and will become a firm favourite in your home too.

You know it’s winter days, when Foodeva Marsay blog does a back-to-back blog post on soups😅.  This was seriously not planned as such, but this Classic Easy Tomato Soup, has been sitting in my Contents folder, waiting to be shared.  Hey what better time than a cold winter’s day to share this right.  Just looking at the vibrant red of the tomato soup, will warm you up.

ARE YOU A FAN OF TOMATO SOUP?  

Personally, Tomato Soup isn’t a favourite of mine, BUT it sure is a firm favourite for my family. For me, Just a few tablespoons of tomato soup will do, BUT I do enjoy dunking a cheesy chilli garlic toastie into a warm bowl of this soup (Hmmm, Yummm)

Tomato Soup is a classic soup, that has been made over generations, using inexpensive ingredients.What I do like about This Soup, is the versatility to be able to serve it, all year round.  It isn’t a heavy soup, and that makes for another reason to serve it either at lunch or as 1st course at a dinner.  For this Soup, I make use of Canned tomatoes, but I have included a recipe note if you would prefer to use fresh tomatoes.  You can find my Recipe write-up with a step by step version with pictures, further down the blog post.
