Quick, easy and delicious Tomato Basil Soup. This rich and creamy recipe is low carb and approved for P2 on the HCG diet.
This soup is great so for so many reason: It takes less than 10 minutes to throw together, I already had all the ingredients on hand (and likely you do too) and it freezes and reheats really well!
If you don’t have basic on hand you could easily swap another herb, but we had basil which made for this classically delectable pairing.

Hello, I just started Hcg this week. Found your website today and made the beef & broccoli tonight. It was sooooo good!!! I want to make the tomato soup but have a couple of questions. Is the soup considered a meal? Greek yogurt wasn’t on my meal plan….are you sure it’s ok? I guess you didn’t have any trouble losing weight while eating it, right? Also my plan says to have Melba toast or a breadstick 2 x a day and I saw no mention of that in your info. Just wondering about that. Thank you so much for any help or words of wisdom and keep those recipes coming! They are amazing
