Fire Roasted Red Lentil Tomato Soup

February 26, 2018 By Lisa Kitahara Leave a Comment

Fire Roasted Red Lentil Tomato Soup - this soup is hearty, flavourful, creamy and full of plant based protein (using a secret ingredients). Only 7 ingredients, almost instant to make and perfect for chilly evenings. Pair it with some toasted bread or top with some crunchy croutons or BBQ roasted fava beans!

There is nothing that makes me happier during the cold than bundling up with a bowl of soup in my hands. There is just something so comforting about soup. If you live in Canada, or anywhere where winter seems to last forever… you’ll know the feeling of just wanting something warm to come home to all the time. I’m all about basic, simple ingredients and recipes that are quick and easy to make- and this recipe is just that. There is nothing more basic than taking some fire roasted tomatoes, a few other basic ingredients, some seasoning and throwing it all into a blender.

For me, the thing about soup is that it has to be satisfying. To do this, I love to add grains and beans to broth based soups. But for this soup, to achieve the creaminess I was looking for, I added tofu and red lentils. Tofu gives it the amazingly creamy texture while the red lentils give it the thickness and bite. I promise, this soup will keep you satisfied and if you need a little more it pairs deliciously with some cooked pasta, quinoa or rice! It’s also fantastic with some grilled cheese, ya feel me?
