Tomato soup gives me a level of comfort that few other things in life give me. Soup alone is a great comfort food, but TOMATO soup…. now that’s a comfy chair, warm blanket and a crackling fireplace all in one bowl. I’m relaxed just thinking about it.
What I love about this recipe, is that it’s so quick and easy to put together. So not only can you cook it last-minute, but it’s so easy it can only add to your level of relaxation! Oh boy. I should be a wet noodle momentarily…
But before I get too relaxed, I should probably share the recipe with you.

I will be trying this for sure! I LOVE tomato soup! I wonder if I could add diced tomatoes to it for chunkiness.?.?
Jaren – Of course! That would be yummy!
can you leave out the boullion
Ruth – You can, but you’ll need to make up for it with other spices. The bouillon makes up a considerable amount of the flavor.
I made this soup last night and it is an absolute winner. Recipes don’t get much easier or quicker. For those of us who grew up eating the canned version, this is an awesome clean alternative. Thanks Tiffany!
Amy – That’s wonderful!! Thanks for the feedback! I adore tomato soup, so I simply HAD to make a clean version. Glad I’m not the only one that likes it! lol
First of all… love this site.
Secondly, I want to make this for a vegan. Do you have any idea on how to replace the chicken stock?
Michelle – Just use veggie broth. The flavor will change slightly, but it should still be tasty. Enjoy!
Hi Tiffany! Always looking for a good soup recipe and this looks outstanding! I can’t palate the Campbell’s Tomato even when I doctor it up with cream and spices. Going to try this this weekend as add just a few croutons to the top.
Annmarie – Sounds great! I hope you enjoy it!
So easy and such a wonderful update! I can’t wait to try it.
Beverly – Great! Let me know how you like it!
This looks so tasty! In the interest of using up things currently in my cupboard, I wonder if I could sub a big can of diced tomatoes pureed with an immersion blender instead of the tomato sauce? Just found your blog today, and I love it! Can’t wait to read more!
Mary – I’m sure that would work. I can’t see why it wouldn’t. Enjoy!
Made this tonight and it was so easy and so yummy. I added a can of diced tomatoes just because we like the chunks of tomato. No more Campbell’s Condensed Tomato Soup! Yuck—doesn’t that just sound gross now??!
Katrina – Yay! I’m so happy you enjoyed it! And yes, the condensed stuff DOES sound gross. Probably because it is! lol
I literally just finished this dish for dinner and it was amazing! I did add a can of chunky tomatoes and a little whole wheat flour to thicken it up. To make it a complete meal, I added lean ground turkey and a little cheese to top it off. Delicious!! This is definitely a meal to make in bulk and freeze portions for an fast, easy, healthy lunch/dinner. Thanks so much for sharing!
Kim – Yum! I’ll try it your way next time. Sounds delicious! Glad you enjoyed it!
tomato soup!!! one of my all time fav’s! with a sandwich-heaven!!!
TF – Ya, mine too. Can’t beat tomato soup.
I just made this for lunch. It was so easy and one of the best soups I’ve ever had. Even my 10 year old, who is our pickiest eater and tomato-hater, came downstairs and said it smelled good and ate a whole bowl of it. This will now be on our weekly lunch menu.
Alleyfam – Fantastic!! I’m so happy everyone enjoyed it! I love it when the kids are willing to try something new and healthy. Such a bonus!!
How does this freeze or will it. I’m trying to get some clean good foods in the freezer for those fast need a meal nights
Batty – I’ve never tried to freeze it. You could experiment with a small amount by freezing it overnight and thawing again in the morning. It’s just so yummy that it never lasts long enough to freeze around here!
Its a rainy day here – Tomato soup looks delish!!! Love your blog, soo many fabulous clean recipes!!!
Mommykinz – Yes, this recipe is PERFECT for a rainy day! Now if only I could figure out a good recipe for garlic bread croutons……
Girl your recipes are so quick and helpful! I will be so happy to call you a colleague when we both become registered dieticians.
Stilman – Why thank you! What a wonderful compliment!
Nikki – I’m all about keeping it simple. Hope you enjoy it!
I gave this a try yesterday and I am wondering if I heated it up too quickly or too hot because my milk curdled instead of being creamy. We still ate it and enjoyed the flavor but I would love to try it again and get it right. Any ideas? 🙂
It’s possible. What kind of milk did you use?
Hmmm…. Ya, that may have been the issue. But keep the heat low as well. Maybe the combo will help.
I cannot wait to try this soup, it looks delicious! I am always looking for new soups to try over my usual tomato soup, thanks!
My pleasure! Enjoy!
No. Typically, broth is just plain broth with no flavoring. Stock has flavoring like spices and veggies. That said, I often confuse the two. And even the box I buy at the store says chicken broth when really, it’s stock. But that’s the difference.
What flavor of bouillon do we use?
I used a vegetable bouillon, but chicken will work too if you can find a clean one.
Would I be able to use homemade almond milk or would that just be weird? Sorry, bit of a cooking newb.
Sarah – You could certainly try it, but I would think you would get a lot of separation and there wouldn’t be much creaminess to it. I think coconut milk would be a better option. Sounds odd, but it’s actually pretty tasty. I made a spaghetti sauce using coconut milk and it was delicious.
Does this recipe freeze well?
Thanks!
Heather – Sure!
Thank you! This was so easy and delicious! My entire family ate it right up. I will be making this one again for sure!
Stacy – My pleasure! 🙂
I really liked this, but it was a bit too savory for me. I had to add a little truvia to it to sweeten it a tad.
Ashley – Yes, it’s supposed to be a savory soup. But glad you were able to make adjustments. 🙂
This was fabulous! My kids loved it, which is high praise. Thank you!
Dana – My pleasure! 😀
