Roasted Tomato & White Bean Soup

Creamy tomato soup without any cream! This roasted tomato and white bean soup is incredibly simple to prepare with the same rich and creamy texture as a classic cream of tomato.

Roasted Tomato and White Bean Soup

 

Last week I paid a visit to my local morning show, CTV Ottawa, to share some simple tips for healthier versions of fall comfort foods. Between zoodles, cauliflower rice, pumpkin pancakes and my oven-baked chicken fingers, I’ve got lots of easy recipes that can satisfy a craving without throwing a wrench in your meal plan. If you’ve been following me for some time now, you know that I am all for high-fat foods and heavy creams, because as long as you are choosing real food in its real format, they all contain a ton of nutritional benefits. However, when it comes to rich and creamy soups, not everyone can tolerate dairy the same way, so it is nice to have options to help create the same delicious texture and consistency, and this roasted tomato and white bean soup is exactly that!

Aside from dairy, there are actually many ways to create a creamy soup texture without adding any heavy cream. For instance, using starchy vegetables like sweet potato or squash is a great way to ensure soups have a thick and rich consistency, and coconut milk is also a great way to add flavour and texture, like in my Curried Coconut Butternut Squash Soup. However, I also think white beans are a fun way to provide a creamy texture and include a little plant-based protein at the same time.

There are a few different varieties of white beans, be it navy beans, lima beans or Great Northern beans, however, my personal preference is cannellini beans for their mild taste and rich texture. Adding them to a soup is quick and easy, especially if you use the canned variety (which is what I did in this recipe) and they really create a rich texture without altering the flavour of the soup too much.  Adding cannellini beans to this roasted tomato and white bean soup really allows the roasted tomato flavour to shine and helps make a simple one-pot meal that can work as an easy dinner or meal prep idea.

    I love soups and I make this one a lot all the time, that it has the beans in it. Great grab and go lunch.

    Delicious, healthy soup and now it’s a fav of my mom’s as well. Only thing is that it tasted a bit stringy from the celery. Any suggestions for how I could prevent this?
