Ingredients
  

Optional Toppings:

  • Freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • Fresh basil leaves thinly sliced

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan or Dutch oven, heat about a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and cook until softened, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add diced tomatoes to the saucepan. Bring to a simmer, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from heat. Add in the evaporated milk.
  • If using an immersion blender, blend soup until smooth. You may need to tilt the pot for the blender to work effectively. If using a regular blender, allow the soup to cool for 10 minutes before transferring it to the blender and blend until smooth and creamy. If soup is too thick, you can blend in a little broth or additional milk. Return to saucepan.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste. Reheat over medium heat if necessary.
  • Garnish with a sprinkle of freshly grated parmesan cheese and thinly sliced basil if desired. Serve warm.

Notes

  • For a bit of an upscale version: If you want to take this easy tomato soup to the next level, I recommend adding a couple of minced garlic cloves when frying up the onion and 1-2 teaspoons of honey when you add the milk. You can even add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little extra kick. 
  • Adapt texture to taste: You can easily switch up the texture of this soup depending on how much you blend it. For an ultra smooth and creamy soup, use a high power blender rather than an immersion blender to puree the soup. Blend in small batches and don’t overfill the blender to prevent the hot soup from exploding all over the kitchen.
  • For a deeper flavour: Try subbing in a can of fire-roasted diced tomatoes instead of regular diced tomatoes.
  • This soup tends to thicken a bit as it sits. If you want a thinner consistency, add a bit of chicken broth or vegetable broth to thin it out.
