Delicious GFCF Homemade Tomato Soup

GFCF tomato soup

As we adjust to life with a GFCF child (for now at least), I’m relying on delicious recipes that feed the whole family, and today I’m sharing my favorite tomato soup recipe at Plan to Eat:

This tomato soup from Gluten-Free Mom has quickly become my favorite gluten-, dairy-, soy-free recipe. It’s easy to put together, makes the whole house smell good and is so flavorful! It is a bit on the spicy side, so I cut the basil and pepper in half this week for my girls, although I prefer it with the full amounts of both.

Get the full recipe at Plan to Eat…

    Thanks for this, and I’m eager to try it when it’s not 99 degrees outside like today was!  My favorite tomato soup recipe uses a roux, but we’ve gone gluten-free at my house, and I’ve been sad about the coming soup season because of it.  I’m happy to have a GFCF recipe to try!

      I hope you love it as much as we do! (And yes, we’ve been eating it even when it IS 90 degrees out, LOL!)

    Same thing happened to me recently, Amanda, when using my flash to take some indoor shots. I thought they looked great until I pulled them up on my computer, then found they were darker than I expected. I’ll have to check my LCD brightness – you may have found my solution for me. :)

    I swear, you JUST described the exact same thing I did while shooting inside our local art musem, which prohibits flash! The noise was GHASTLY. They looked great in the dim galleries but when I downloaded…ugh, what a mess! My ISO was set low, but the underexposure completely killed any shot I had that was pleasing otherwise. Now, I just leave my LCD brightness set at the default for my camera. As a side note, if you do shoot outside a lot and want a way to see your LCD without ambient light, grab a Hoodman Loupe.

    I am such a dummy when it comes to photography. I have a nice point and shoot that my daughter set up for me. I definitely need to learn but I haven’t had time. However, I did check my LCD screen settings and will keep an eye on that in the future. Thanks for the tip.

    Great advice! I almost always flub later if I don’t reset my settings to the “normal” spot & I always kick myself for not remembering. This is also a good reminder for those of us that use flash infrequently. I only pull mine out every so often & always forget that it changes what I see on my meter.

    Found you via Pinterest! My LCD brightness is always zeroed. I never thought to play with it according to my camera and computer and whatever preferences. I am just starting out tho! Tks!

    great tip Amanda, but that brings me to another question – so I have a terrible time shooting outside when it’s bright out and you can’t see your screen – so now I’m wondering, when would you adjust your LCD brightness, because wouldn’t it always produce false information like what happend to you?
