Here is one of my secret diet weapons!  Skinny Tomato and Roasted Red Pepper Soup.  Coming in at only 30 calories a cup.  (That is exactly a cup in the photo by the way).  It’s hearty and healthy and great with a half a turkey sammie for lunch.

In under 30 minutes you can have a big batch of this delicious low calorie soup that will feed that hungry lunch demon all week long!

Make a double batch if you can, it freezes really well.   Meal prep in small containers and make that boring sammie you been eating go boom!

How to make Skinny Tomato and Roasted Red Pepper Soup!

Saute’ up some onions and garlic.  Pretty basic!

Add a couple large cans of tomatoes.  You can use whole, chopped or even crushed.  Drain a couple jars of roasted red peppers and chop them up.  Toss them in with some chicken stock.

Now the fun part…power tools!  I use an immersion blender. (it’s 20 years old BTW. Must have been the first immersion blender the cave men used.  Still works like a champ!).  Feel pretty good about recommending this brand !

You can also use a blender or food processor.   But if you have no gadgets that blend..we still got ya covered.  You can  just mash it up with a tomato masher and leave it chunky.  I love chunky!   And Skinny!  I love Chunky and Skinny…there I said it.  I am a lover of it all!

Tips to make this Skinny Tomato and Roasted Red Pepper Soup:

    Wonderful recipe!! This was so good!! So flavorful. Nothing like any tomato soup I’ve ever eaten in the past. Made healthy Italian grilled cheese to go with it. I could definitely see using this recipe for sauce to use in other recipes as well. Thank you so much for the recipe!!

    I didn’t add the tomatoes (Big lover of tomatoes but wanted a full red pepper experience).
    Didn’t add the crushed red pepper (love it ).
    I was trying to recreate what I had in a restaurant and this fit the bill.
    Optional: If you want a bit of sour cream, and/or FRESH basil…..not a bad idea
