Try this unique green tomato soup recipe this season! It’s easy to make and tasty, allowing you to use some of the leftover green tomatoes from your garden.

What else to do with lots of green tomatoes? Don’t stick to making fried green tomatoes; they’re excellent, but there is much more you can do with the unripe produce. I make Green Tomato Salsa Verde, Green Tomato Bread, and Green Tomato Sauce every year, but a simple soup shouldn’t be underrated.

Roasted Tomato Basil Soup

You will be surprised by the soup’s flavors. The tang of the unripe vegetables is balanced by using coconut milk or heavy cream, and the curry makes it slightly spicy. Not to mention that this green tomato soup is the perfect vehicle for those amazing crispy, homemade croutons.

Yes, many people think they might be poisonous, but there is no evidence for that. They contain solanine and tomatine (like potatoes and eggplants), but the toxic compounds are too low to cause problems.

Slightly sour but less sour than you might think. In this recipe, the tanginess is balanced by using coconut milk or heavy cream and a touch of sugar.

Certainly not. They are delicious and an excellent topping for this (and many other) soups. However, they are optional; if you don’t have the time to make them, leave them.

Store the leftover croutons in a separate container. They are best on the day you’ve baked them, but they will keep fine in an airtight container for several days at room temperature.

Reheat the soup in the microwave or on the stovetop. If too thick, add a splash of milk or broth to loosen it.

Serve the green tomato soup with croutons, a few extra leaves of chopped basil, and maybe a drop or two of sesame oil, which enhances the flavor.

If you decide not to make the croutons, serve the soup with a few slices of crusty bread on the side. Check out our Spelt Bread (No-Rise, No-Knead Bread),  Oat Bread without Yeast,  Flaxseed Bread,  Easy Yogurt Soda Bread, or Buckwheat Bread.

I accidentally fell in love with green tomatoes this fall. But only because I didn’t have much of a choice. The squirrels in my neighborhood are complete lunatics. And they’ve completely ruined all of my tomato hopes and dreams. They prance around in my garden and take big bites out of each tomato just when they become perfectly juicy and ripe. It’s maddening.

So, in order to save my tomatoes from the squirrels, I have to pick them when they’re still green. My choices are having no tomatoes at all or have green tomatoes. I try to make the most of my green tomatoes by either ripening them inside on my windowsill. Or by making this green tomato soup.

White Beans Make This Vegan Green Tomato Soup Extra Creamy

Green tomatoes are slightly tart, sweet and (in my opinion) kind of underrated. Famously they are known for the classic Southern dish, fried green tomatoes. Which, while I’ve never had, I’m sure is delicious. But I like to eat them raw. Sliced really thin in summer salads for a nice crunch. Or I like them blended into this roasted green tomato soup.

Green tomato soup tastes similar to red tomato soup. It’s just a little brighter and more acidic, but not in a bad way. In this soup recipe I balanced the tartness by slow-roasting the tomatoes with onions and garlic. Which allows the flavors of the green tomatoes to deepen and caramelize while bringing out their natural sugars.

Then I blend the roasted tomatoes and onions with some leafy greens and a super savory broth (this vegetable broth is a great homemade option). And I top it all off with parsley sauce.It’s naturally vegan, gluten-free, nut-free, creamy, sweet and luscious. I hope you love it as much as I do. And I hope it inspires you to think out of the green tomato recipe box.

Roasted Tomato Soup

Hi Elizabeth - I would think this is probably less calories than a regular tomato soup because it doesn't have any dairy. I don't track macros or post nutritional info, but I know there's a bunch of online calculators that you can you plug recipes into. I hope that helps.

This was so good. The flavor is light almost but it hits the spot. This will definitely be useful in using up the rest of my green tomatoes from the last harvest of the year.
