Assorted tomatoes and coconut cream make this Paleo Tomato Soup dairy-, gluten-, and sugar-free! In Thug Kitchen fashion (I'm excited to get to see them in a couple weeks; they have a new cookbook out!) today is no write-up, no story; just a little rant at you to stop eating that fing processed, sugar-filled crap, and make some old-fashioned Paleo Tomato Soup. Tomatoes are cheap and the flavor is hands down 10 million fing times better. Do it now, get yourself some tomatoes and a big pot, and get to work!
Well, not totally Thug Kitchen style… we have a pile of pictures.
Paleo Tomato Soup pairs really well with Portobello Mushroom Paleo Tacos!

Just made tomato soup yesterday as we have so many tomatoes ripening in the cold frame. They are small, so I cut them in half and throw them into the magic bullet before putting them in the soup pot. I sautee the onions, garlic, carrots and celery for awhile before adding the tomatoes in. A little bay leaf adds another flavour. Yum!
