Best carrot tomato soup is the one which is made with minimal ingredients. There are many tomato soup recipes, like cream of tomato, vegan tomato soup. This soup is a very popular one. Nothing better than an easy homemade tomato soup when you are down and out. It is flavorful, cooks fast and it has my secret ingredient. I call it 1-2-3 tomato soup. Why? Because it needs the ingredients in just that quantity to make it.
You can add other ingredients optionally but even with basic 3 ingredients. However, some salt n pepper it would taste just as yummy. This is a great recipe for detox or just when you want your kitchen budget in control. Especially now with budgets reaching the sky due to inflation or due to the pandemic. Other vegan soups include Adzuki bean soup , pumpkin soup, white bean soup , Asparagus soup , broccoli soup ,manchow soup ,corn soup , minestrone soup , spinach soup.

Hello, please instruct if you can used canned tomatoes. If so, what and how much do you use?
Thx.
bhavana bhatia says
Hi Nancy
Thanks for your query.
You can use 1 full can of tomatoes. However, try to use the natural no preservative ones. Canned tomatoes are already tart so you may avoid apple in this case.
Warm Regards
Bhavana
