Vegan Tomato Soup really is BETTER Than Cambell’s! And Gluten-Free!
This Vegan GF Tomato Soup recipe is smooth, rich, tomatoey, with just the right amount of tomatoey sweetness. It’s also super easy to make with commonly found pantry items.
One of my favorite soups was always Campbell’s classic tomato soup.
I remember it being a perfect, creamy blend of tomato and cheesiness. It was so delicious with a grilled cheese sandwich to dip!
After going gluten-free in 2012, I was disappointed that Campbell’s tomato soup was off the menu. It has wheat flour in it!
But it is so easy and so simple to just make your own! It’s just a few ingredients — such as crushed, whole, diced, or stewed tomatoes — that most of us have in our pantries already! And please do use whichever kind of canned tomato you have on hand. It’s not rocket science. It all tastes delicious when it’s mixed up together.
Here’s the recipe for the soup. I used Daiya Provolone Cheese Slices for a grilled cheese to dip! I’ll have a vegan, gluten-free sandwich bread recipe for you soon!

Hello! I’m Lisa, a vegan artist, photographer, author, Vegan Life Coach Educator, and RYT 200 yoga teacher. I love showing others how simple and delicious a plant-based diet can be. I draw and paint, cook, write, take lots of pics, eat lots of chocolate, and practice gratitude daily.
I’m going to try this in my VitaMix as a blend-only hot soup! Just change the instruction for “blend for 1 minute” to “blend for 6-8 minutes”, and that should do it! Will try and report back. Are you familiar with Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn, of “Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease” fame? (http://www.dresselstyn.com/site/books/prevent-reverse/about-the-book/) I follow his program, Whole Food, Plant Based, No Oil (WFPBNO) and your recipes are right on the money! Only minor or no adaptations to fit his program. Loved your Pad Thai soup. Also, my GF has a wheat allergy, so the fact your recipes are generally gluten-free is awesome!!
That should work! Yes, I’m familiar with Dr. Esselstyn and often follow WFPBNO. Glad you and you GF are enjoying the recipes!
