One of the best things to do on a frosty day is sit back and enjoy a nice cup of tomato soup, but with all the sugar added in store bought cans, it’s hard to find one to eat while keto. So I knew I had to attempt a low-carb version.
To make it easy, I made this soup with tomato paste, specifically choosing the one with the least carbs. However, you could also make it with canned halved tomatoes, but you’d need to run the soup through a blender to make it nice and smooth.
This soup is great to make, especially if you want to make more.. You can just double the tomato paste and cream. This tomato soup takes roughly 20 minutes to make, start to finish. The best part is that it is so filling, you don’t need a lot to fill you up!
