Soups are heartwarming, genuine and can actually lift the mood. They are also great stress busters and extremely nutritious. Tomato Soups are perhaps the most widely made and enjoyed of them all. There’s something in this that is rich, thick, Creamy Tomato Soup and brings to mind mums and memories of home.
I have prepared this rich creamy tomato soups many times for my family, and they all love it. Whether as a mid-morning dish or an appetizer before dinner, it never disappoints. Creamy Tomato Soup has become a family favorite now and we often have it in bun bowls and enjoy it almost all the year round.
You can also add Parmesan and garlic croutons in the soup, they go very well with Creamy Tomato Soup
If you’ve made this tomato soup once too often, then try out the other one I’ve prepared, Thai Pumpkin Noodle Soup being especially delicious.
