Creamy Tomato Soup

A bowl of this creamy tomato soup will keep you warm and definitely satisfy your taste buds!

I’ve already put up a post about Homemade Gazpacho Soup – a cold tomato soup typical for Spain so now it’s the right time to make a post about warm tomato soup because… Well, because it’s still winter and because we love soups!

I must say I don’t cook this soup. It is my other half who does the cooking when it comes to warm tomato soup. I have a very different tomato soup recipe that is not as fancy as this one and truth be told it’s been ages since I last cooked my version of warm tomato soup.

So if you like soups like we do you might enjoy this one!
