Forget Ready Made Tomato Soup! Make This One Instead! Serve with Crunchy Grilled Cheese.

Many ready made tomato soups contain excess sodium. My Trailblazing Creamy Tomato Soup is made with left-over spaghetti sauce and powerful protein-full tofu. The tofu taste is overpowered by the wonderful flavors of the spaghetti sauce. And when blenderized, provides a creaminess that deserved the name cream of tomato soup. Plus it comes together from start to finish (with a blenderizer) in 15-20 minutes.

Trailblazing Creamy Tomato Soup

Trailblazing Creamy Tomato Soup is classic tomato soup with a higher protein profile —the “secret weapon” is  silken tofu.  Bonus: Trailblazing Creamy Tomato Soup goes together and ready to eat in 15 minutes. 

Much has been said and written about tofu, which is a very familiar ingredient to most vegetarians, but once it is pureed to “cream” this soup, it will surprise everyone.

Serve this with an untraditional Grilled Cheese Sandwich by adding crunchy tortilla chips.  Simply top the cheese with some corn tortilla chips and melt as usual.

 Serves 2.

2 cups of jarred pasta sauce

½  cup chicken broth (I use ½  teaspoon Better Than Bouillon with ½ cup of water)

3-4 ounces soft tofu, cubed

1 teaspoon sugar

Chopped fresh basil

Place ingredients in a 4-quart soup pot.  Blenderize* all except the basil.  Heat over medium heat. Stir in basil. Serve.

*If you don’t have a  blenderizer,  puree ingredients in the food processor, then heat in a soup pot.
