- 1 Tablespoon fresh basil leaves, chopped
- ½ 120g can (½ 5-ounce can) garbanzo beans, drained, (optional)
Directions
- Place water, peeled tomatoes, Roma tomato, garlic, bouillon cube, salt, pepper, and basil into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
- Select Variable 1 or the Hot Soups program (if available).
- Start the machine, slowly increase to the highest speed, and blend for 5 minutes 45 seconds; or start the machine and allow the Hot Soups program to complete. Stop the machine.
- Select Variable 1. Start the machine and remove the lid plug. Add garbanzo beans to the container and blend for 15 seconds.
Notes
Bright IdeaFor a thinner soup, add another cup of water.
If the soup taste like fresh vegetables you can simmer over the open stove to intensify the flave and give it the traditional cooked taste.Nutrition Information

Needs improvement
I agree, it’s very watery. I did put 3 cloves of garlic in, so it had a garlicky punch. But this recipe definitely needs tweaking. Also I didn’t achieve the colour of the soup that’s in the picture! Definitely been photoshopped!

Very bland
Way too watery and very bland. Had to add more tomatoes and a half of onion. Sprinkled some parmesan cheese also.

Good base recipe easily adapted
This recipe was incredibly easy to make. One of my first recipes. I had to adapt to accommodate the limited ingredients on hand. Used diced roasted tomatoes, fresh Roma, tomato paste, granulated garlic, fresh basil. Added salt and pepper to taste. Family enjoyed!

Tomatoe soup
Tomato soup was good. I will leave out the chick peas next time (made soup chuncky)and add a jar of roasted red peppers. Added Parmesan on top and it gave the soup a nice punch.

Great after tweaking
I skipped canned tomatoes and used only fresh ones, added one courgette, half an onion and a bit of chilli flakes. Came out very nice, spicy, creamy. I skipped beans as well and added a bit of cooked minced pork, was a good choice for a carnivore.

Bland
Did not care for it at all. Little flavor. Cooled it before pureeing.

Not good
This soup is easy to make but doesn’t taste good at all. Nobody in my family would eat it.

Very "Green" Uncooked Flavor
This recipe was not to my liking. It tasted like raw garlic and very green in flavor. Given that the garlic is not cooked, it is like eat straight up garlic. Overall flavor is not very well rounded.
