Coconut Tomato Soup

This creamy tomato soup with a hint of lime is a unique twist on the usual Italian inspired varieties. Our Coconut Tomato Soup recipe is delicious when prepared with fresh summer tomatoes, but canned tomatoes can be used otherwise. Using coconut milk as “cream”, this tomato soup recipe is Paleo, vegetarian, and vegan friendly as well. Serve it as an appetizer to your main course or as a light lunch with a side of our mouth-watering Grain-Free Herbed Focaccia Bread.
