This Slow Cooker Tomato Soup is a vibrant classic. Add the ingredients to a slow cooker and let it simmer all day, it’s that easy.
You seriously can’t beat a traditional tomato soup especially when it is served with grilled cheese. It is one of my favorite fall-time meals. My kids love it too. My hubby, on the other hand, prefers Chicken Noodle Soup with his grilled cheese, don’t ask me why, as I don’t get that either.
I love that this recipe is made in the slow cooker. The first time I made this was when a bunch of friends and I got together for a soup and salad night. Of course, there were all the classics like Chicken Tortilla Soup and then someone also brought my Tuscan Tortellini Soup (which I was happy about) but nothing beat this Slow Cooker Tomato Soup. I mean tomato soup is gorgeous to begin with, right? You can add a gorgeous topping or two and have it be stunning. I love adding a drop of two of heavy cream right before I am about to serve so that it has a nice white stroke in it – and then even a sprig of rosemary. Stunning.
Soups can be a meal, I think too often we make them a side but they can shine as the star. You don’t need it to be snowing or rainy out to have soup for dinner, this is a great summer meal and I love that you can start it in the morning and then let it cook all day while you are out enjoying the sunshine. Come back to a delicious soup and a salad on the side and you are set.
Enjoy this traditional favorite from my slow cooker to yours. XOXO San
