Whole30 + Keto Roasted Tomato Basil Soup

Whole30 + Keto Roasted Tomato Basil Soup Recipe + Video Demo – 7g net carbs! A rustic, low carb roasted tomato soup with fresh basil. Paleo, gluten free, grain free, dairy free, sugar free, clean eating, real food.

I am not exaggerating in any way. This is the BEST tomato soup I have ever had. In my entire life. Ever.

Such a deep, caramelized, sweet tomato flavor without being overly acidic. So creamy and thick and the perfect amount of basil.

You are going to love this one!

Whole30 + Keto Roasted Tomato Basil Soup

The secret to this amazing soup is slow roasting the tomatoes, onions and garlic in olive oil in your oven. (This is the same method I use for my sheet pan marinara sauce!)

By slow roasting, it intensifies the tomato flavor and gives it that amazing caramelized flavor that you just can get from a soup pot. It brings out all the sweetness and mellows all the acid.

Once you’ve tried slow roasted tomatoes, you’ll never go back!

Best Tomatoes To Use

If possible, get summer tomatoes from your garden or farmers market. The flavor is the best! This is why I plant 12 tomato plants in my garden, haha! I can’t get enough of them.

This soup freezes beautifully, so I love making big batches all summer long when tomatoes and basil are at their peak, then freezing to enjoy all year round.

If you can’t get summer tomatoes, store bought tomatoes will work too! The slow roasting process will bring out their best flavors.

Blending Tomato Basil Soup

After the tomatoes have roasted, transfer them to your blender with a big handful of fresh basil. Blend over medium speed until completely smooth. Just 1-2 minutes.

To make it a soup, just add in bone broth (or chicken stock) and heavy cream (or your favorite dairy free cream substitute, see recipe notes for suggestions).

Serving Whole30 + Keto Roasted Tomato Basil Soup

This soup is delicious as is. But there are tons of ways to jazz it up! Add on a scoop of pesto. Drizzle with basil infused olive oil. Sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan. Crumble on parmesan “crackers” like Whisps. Top with red pepper flakes. Whatever you love!

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350ºF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Spread the tomatoes, onion + garlic on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and salt.
3. Slow roast in the oven for 2 hours. Remove, and allow to cool to room temperature.
4. Lift out the parchment paper, and transfer the tomato mixture to your high speed blender. Add in the fresh basil.
5. Blend over low or medium speed until smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
6. Transfer the blended tomato mixture to your soup pot that is on the stove over medium heat.
7. Add in desired amount of bone broth until it is the desired consistency. This can vary depending on how juicy your tomatoes were, and how thin or thick you like your soup. I usually like 2 cups of bone broth.
8. Add in desired amount of heavy cream. I usually like 1/2 cup. Feel free to add more or less depending on your preference.
9. Bring soup to a simmer. Taste for salt + pepper. Serve warm.
10. Leftovers will keep in an airtight container refrigerated for at least 5 days, or frozen for at least 6 months.
11. Fun ways to jazz up the soup (but it’s still delicious as is!): add on a dollop of pesto, top with more fresh basil, top with fresh grated parmesan, sprinkle on crushed parmesan crackers like Whisps, add on red pepper flakes, drizzle on basil infused olive oil, etc.

Notes

Tomatoes: I love making this with tomatoes from my garden. I find they have the best flavor. Why I plant 12 tomato plants every summer, haha! Would work fine with store bought tomatoes too!

Onion: I prefer the flavor of yellow onion in this soup. You could substitute red or white onion.

Basil: I find the best flavor is from fresh basil, which I also grow in my garden. You could use dried if it’s all you have! A 1/4 cup of dried basil should do it. Add it when blending.

Whole30/Dairy Free: If you need this soup to be dairy free and/or Whole30, you can substitute 1/2 cup cashew cream, coconut cream from a can or original flavor nutpods in place of the heavy cream. Or, leave it out! This soup is still amazing without any added “cream”. Note, this will effect the nutritional information.

Freezing: Freeze the soup in a freezer safe airtight container for at least 6 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight. Reheat either in the microwave until warm, about 3-5 minutes. Or reheat on the stove in a pot for 5ish minutes until warm.

Marinara Sauce: This first half of this recipe is the same as my sheet pan marinara sauce! My favorite way to roast and store my tomatoes in the freezer to enjoy year round!
