Carrot Tomato Soup

The title of this soup doesn’t give it justice. “The Most Amazing Soup Ever” is more like it!

At first glance, you might think carrots… tomatoes… whatever. But as a friend, let me tell you to stop right there. If you don’t try this soup, you are missing out. My sister and I LOVED this soup and could easily eat it every day. Tanney isn’t much of a soup person, except for clam chowder, but she finished her bowl and asked for another one.

Real-time thoughts after eating this soup:

Tanney: “We can post this on Tomato Tuesday.”
Josie: “What’s Tomato Tuesday”
Tanney: “I don’t know, I just made it up. Maybe it can be a day celebrating tomatoes, duh.”

We nicknamed this recipe glow soup, because our skin literally glowed the next day from the nutrients of the veggies and the bone broth.

Adding a touch of cream at the end makes the texture of the soup silky smooth and makes it look fancy, fancy.

Tanney: “Why does it look like there’s a UFO floating on top of my soup?”
Josie: “That’s supposed to be a rose.”

Enjoy this carrot tomato soup, it’s some good stuff!

Carrot Tomato Soup notes:

-We used our bone broth recipe to make this soup. So much tastier and healthier than the store bought kind! If you are short on time though, Pacific brand sells ready-made bone broth.

  1. Ahhh… you’ve hit upon the secret of the best winter squash and carrot soups (which are usually too sweet, bland, and unbalanced). Namely, add a balancing acidic ingredient, such as tomato. It’s my “secret” ingredient. 🙂

  6. I have been trying to spread the word about Carrots and tomatoes to no avail! Your recipe makes so much sense to me and I am so glad that I am not the only one touting the delicious combination. I can’t wait to try “The Most Amazing Soup Ever”.

  9. This looks delicious!

    Can’t wait for autumn to come to try this one out! It looks perfect to eat while cozying up next to the fireplace 🙂
