Easy Vegan Tomato & Basil Soup

This vegan tomato and basil soup is one of my favorite soups ever and you’ll understand exactly why after you taste it.

As you might have noticed, I’m not really a big fan of complicated recipes that take hours to make.

I think that creating truly delicious meals is a result of carefully selecting quality ingredients, and choosing the right herbs/spices to go with them.

This soup proves that sentiment perfectly. What’s in it? Pureed tomatoes, onions, spices, herbs, pasta, salt and water.

I mean, that doesn’t sound very appetizing, does it?

And yet, when you combine these ingredients and cook them together, the result is a mouthwatering and heart warming deliciousness.

This soup is creamy, healthy and hearty.

You can even grate some vegan cheese on top to make it EXTRA cozy!

Talk about healthy comfort food, though.

The basis of this soup is completely clean eating. BUT, even if you add some veggie whole wheat tortellinis (you should!!!), it becomes the best soup ever.

It’s like the liquid manifestation of a hug.

There is really no knowledge or skill needed to make this recipe. If you know how to cut onions and cook pasta, you’re all set.

Also, just make sure you taste the soup while it’s cooking and add salt/pepper if needed.

P.S. If you want a super creamy soup, you can use a hand blender at the end.
