High Protein Tomato Basil Soup

Servings: 4
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 35–40 minutes

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp avocado oil

• 1 small yellow onion, quartered

• 3 cloves garlic

• 4 large heirloom or regular tomatoes, quartered

• 1 tsp Italian seasoning

• ½ tsp garlic powder

• ½ tsp onion powder

• Salt and black pepper, to taste

• 2 cups Kettle & Fire chicken bone broth

• 1½ cups cottage cheese

• ½ cup fresh basil, plus more for topping

• 1–2 tsp honey or allulose, optional

• Parmesan, for topping

Instructions

1. Roast the vegetables: Preheat oven to 425°F. Add the tomatoes, onion, and garlic to a baking sheet. Drizzle with avocado oil and season with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.

2. Roast: Roast for 25–30 minutes, or until the tomatoes are softened and slightly caramelized around the edges.

3. Blend: Carefully transfer the roasted vegetables to a high-speed blender. Add the bone broth, cottage cheese, and fresh basil. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.

4. Adjust the flavor: Taste and add additional salt and pepper as needed. If the tomatoes are too acidic, add 1–2 teaspoons of honey or allulose and blend again.

5. Warm & serve: Pour the soup into a pot and gently warm over low heat if needed. Do not boil, since the cottage cheese has already been blended in.

6. Top & enjoy: Serve warm topped with Parmesan, fresh basil, and cracked black pepper.
