Description
Healthy Potato Carrot Tomato Soup is just the soup you need when you are craving a healthy, hearty and plant-based soup full of whole food ingredients and using what you already have on hand. It is full of veggies, naturally gluten-free, oil-free and low-fat!
Ingredients
- 2 cups (480g) fire-roasted tomato puree
- 4 cups water
- 1 1/2 cups (240g) diced red onion
- 5 large cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon regular paprika
- 1 1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon fine salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 720g gold potatoes, cut into bite size chunks (about 5 cups)
- 4 long carrots, sliced into 1/4 inch pieces (212g)
- 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons chili pepper sauce
- 3 large handfuls spinach (optional), or any greens
Instructions
1. Puree a large can of fire-roasted tomatoes in a blender until smooth. Measure out 2 cups and set aside.
2. Add 1/2 cup of the water and diced red onion to a large pot over medium heat. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until tender.
3. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes, being careful not to burn. Add more water if needed.
4. Add paprika, coriander, salt, and pepper. Stir for about 15 seconds to soak up any remaining liquid.
5. Add the remaining 3 1/2 cups water, potatoes, and carrots. Bring to a rolling boil.
6. Once boiling, cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 8 minutes.
7. Add the tomato puree and chili pepper sauce. Increase heat to medium and cook another 8 minutes until veggies are tender and soup has thickened.
8. If using spinach, add it now and cook for another 2 minutes until wilted.
9. Let soup sit for about 10 minutes to thicken further.
10. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt, chili pepper sauce, or red pepper flakes if desired.
Notes
The fire-roasted tomato puree adds deep flavor and should not be skipped.
Chili pepper sauce adds heat and tang—adjust to your spice preference.
If unavailable, sriracha may be used, but it is spicier—start with 1 tablespoon.
Soup tastes even better the next day and stores well for several days.
