The Power of Red

Tomatoes. Eat them. They make an appearance in, The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth as well as SuperFoods Rx. Tomatoes are rich in antioxidants that protect your skin and eyes as well as properties that prevent cancer. I am kind of weird when it comes to tomatoes, I will eat fresh salsa but don't like raw tomatoes, say, on a burger or a salad. So, if you are like me, and are finicky about your tomatoes, keep trying them and find a way to get them in your diet.

Your typical can of tomato soup has: tomato purée, water, wheat, flour, high fructose corn syrup, salt, ascorbic acid, flavoring, citric acid. I can say with utmost certainty, my version is healthier! Two ingredients to make this; organic tomatoes with garlic and onion and organic grass-fed cream. If you are avoiding dairy coconut cream works just fine. No added sugar or gluten necessary! Want to make it an entrée, add some protein, like chicken sausage.

You will need a high-speed blender to make this soup. The model of Vitamix we have, has a soup option on it, which means it heats as well as blends. If you are using a standard blender, you will need to heat this on your stove top.
