The Easiest Tomato Soup is ready in about 15 minutes and has just 4 ingredients- tomatoes, onions, garlic and butter! Pair it with a grilled cheese sandwich for a cozy, comforting meal.

We still have an abundance of garden tomatoes but even if you don't, you can make this tomato soup easily with store-bought or farmers market tomatoes. It has 4 ingredients and comes together in about 15 minutes. I love this tomato soup paired with grilled cheese. Try the easiest tomato soup for a delicious meal or side dish.

For the easiest tomato soup, I heated some butter in a small pot. Then I added chopped onions, a bunch of tomatoes and fresh garlic. Simmer until everything is well cooked and the some of the water cooks out from the tomatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste and blend. Bam, your tomato soup is ready to serve.

I don't bother peeling the tomatoes or straining out the seeds. They don't bother me, the skin has lots of nutrients and fiber and when you blend it, the skins blend up anyways. Try it! We rarely peel any of our fruits or veggies. Tomatoes are rich in vitamin C, vitamin A and lycopene. All important nutrients that our bodies need. 

Can you freeze tomato soup?

This soup can even be frozen. I would totally make it in large quantities and then defrost it for a meal. I like freezing soup in a mason jar (just make sure to leave plenty of room for the soup to expand once it is frozen) or a ziploc bag.

For the grilled cheese, to make it a little more nutritious, I use whole-wheat bread. It's all that my kids are used to and we all love it. I also use cheddar cheese instead of American.
