Keto Tomato Soup
Description
Keto Tomato Soup begins by roasting diced Roma tomatoes seasoned with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper at 400°F, which softens the tomatoes and concentrates their flavor while wrinkling the skins. After roasting for 25 to 30 minutes, the tomatoes and their juices are blended until smooth, providing a fresh and natural base.
The blended tomato mixture is transferred to a saucepan with chicken broth, tomato paste, dried oregano, dried basil, and a bay leaf, then brought to a boil and simmered for 15 minutes. This cooking step melds the flavors and thickens the soup. The final addition of whipping cream adds creaminess and balances acidity without overpowering the tomato's brightness.
Serving the soup garnished with very thinly sliced fresh basil adds a subtle herbal note and visual appeal. The soup is a comforting option that can fit into a low-carb meal plan while offering rich, layered tomato flavor.
