I hadn’t intended on posting this recipe until my sister said she had only made tomato soup from a can. This is an almost from scratch tomato soup, it is so easy, only takes a couple minutes and is SO much better. Since, this has become a favorite in their house and a top request from my nephew Aeron when he returns from college.
Oh, and grilled cheeses? They’re made for dipping. You’ll love my bacon jam & gruyere grilled cheese recipe or gourmet grilled cheese recipe to pair it with. This is one of my favorite fall and winter go to recipes, but we even enjoy it chilled in summer.
This recipe makes an incredible weeknight dinner, but it’s also great for entertaining since you can quickly serve a large crowd by doubling or tripling the recipe. I love serving soup in these individual cocottes which go straight from refrigerator or freezer to oven to table!

Homemade tomato soup just can’t be beat! It’s so incredibly easy to make, and your version looks delicious.
I haven’t found a recipe that my daughter likes better than the box from Whole Foods—your recipe certainly looks a heck of a lot better to me!!! I’d be happy to eat any she doesn’t 🙂
I love easy! This soup looks fantastic!

When you say “large can of crushed tomatoes,” do you mean the 28-oz. size?
