This is a healthy vegan alternative to traditional Tomato Soup, it is easily made gluten-free and it is sweetened with coconut milk rather than sugar.

Ingredients:

I enjoy tomato soup. But I wasn't satisfied looking at recipes I found on the net. They all seemed to include sugar and I think there are better ways of adding taste.
