Cream of Tomato Soup is a classic comfort food known for its rich and velvety texture. Originating from Western cuisine, particularly popular in the United States and Europe, it typically combines pureed tomatoes, cream, butter, and vegetable broth, along with seasonings like basil, garlic, and onion for added depth of flavor. The tomatoes provide a valuable source of antioxidants like lycopene and vitamin C, promoting heart health and immune support. However, its creamy base can be high in saturated fats and calories, especially if made with heavy cream and lots of butter. Lighter versions, substituting low-fat dairy or plant-based alternatives, can make this warm, savory dish a healthier option while retaining its signature taste. Often paired with a slice of toasted bread or grilled cheese, Cream of Tomato Soup remains a beloved choice for cozy, nutritious meals during cooler months.
