CREAMY TOMATO GORGONZOLA SOUP WITH BASIL (LOWER CALORIE)



Creamy Tomato Gorgonzola Soup With Basil (Lower Calorie) image

Another Skinny Bride recipe -- I actually found this one on sparkpeople.com, and since I LOVE LOVE LOVE this soup from Kroger's Soup bar but did not appreciate all the calories and fat, I found this recipe to cure my craving without me killing myself on the treadmill! Serving size is a two cup serving which is large, but if you eat this with a simple salad with just some vinegar, it makes it a meal. So it might serve 8 if you just had cups instead of bowls.

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 40m

Yield 1 pot of soup, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

56 ounces diced tomatoes, drained (no salt added)
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 tablespoons tomato paste
6 garlic cloves, pressed
1 pint fat-free half-and-half
2 tablespoons basil leaves, fresh, chopped
3/4 cup low-fat gorgonzola, crumbled

Steps:

  • Pulse the drained tomatoes in a food processor until smooth, about ten 1-second pulses followed by about 20 seconds continuous; set aside.
  • Cook the garlic, tomato paste, and oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the tomato paste begins to brown, about 2 minutes. [note: This is best in a regular pot, not non-stick, but non-stick is fine if that's all you have.].
  • Stir in the pureed tomatoes until the tomato paste mixture has thoroughly combined with the tomato puree.
  • Cook for about 5 minutes until the tomatoes are bubbling. Add the gorgonzola and stir until the cheese has melted and no longer appears as lumps in the sauce (5-8 mins).
  • Add 1 pint of fat free half and half. Stir to thoroughly incorporate. Remove from heat to keep half and half from boiling.
  • Off the heat, stir in the basil.

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes for the best flavor. You can use fresh, canned, or even roasted tomatoes for this soup. If using fresh tomatoes, be sure to remove the seeds and skins before cooking.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different cheeses. Gorgonzola is a classic choice, but you could also try Parmesan, Asiago, or Fontina.
  • Add a little bit of spice for a kick. A pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of cayenne pepper can help to balance out the sweetness of the tomatoes.
  • Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers for dipping. This will help to soak up all of the delicious broth.

Conclusion:

Creamy tomato gorgonzola soup is a rich, flavorful, and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a chilly day. It is also a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a soup that is sure to impress your family and friends.
