Simply Sweet Tomato Soup (Paleo, GAPS, SCD, Whole 30)

Happy Friday everyone! The weekend is basically here which, if you are anything like me, you are more than looking forward to. I have an amazing recipe to share with you today too that would be an easy addition to your weekend meal plan. This Simply Sweet Tomato Soup was made entirely with tomatoes from my parents garden when I was recently in BC. We had more tomatoes than we knew what to do with out there! It was glorious. There is nothing quite like a fresh tomato right out of the garden. Oh yum. So I hope that your garden is still spilling over with tomatoes because this soup is a great way to use them! This one is also incredibly easy to make, and pretty darn delicious if you ask me (Erik and my family would also support that statement). This recipe only has 6 ingredients, and is ready in under 20 minutes. Yep, I told you it was easy!

So I don’t know where you live, but we just had an epic (yes epic) snow storm here this week. If you ask me it is way too early for snow and the destruction that we had here in Calgary was incredible. At my house we were without power for about 8 hours on Wednesday so I ended up hibernating in the library in order to get access to the internet (it’s basically impossible to study without the internet it turns out). It is going to take weeks to clean up from this storm. And so many beautiful trees and crops were ruined. It’s pretty sad actually. I have never seen anything like this in September in my life time, and I am not sure if there has ever been a storm like this this early in the season. But in true Calgary fashion, it is supposed to be back to summer type weather by the weekend. They say we are the city that can experience all four seasons all in one day, and this week is a prime example of how true this statement can be.

Ok rant time. You know what needs to be stopped. This whole leggings as pants phenomenon. Now don’t get me wrong, I am a huge fan of leggings – but – under tunics and tops that, ahem, cover those bits that are supposed to be covered. I am seeing more and more women wearing thin leggings instead of pants, and let’s just say there is not a lot of imagination required to see what’s underneath. Is this happening where you live? Why people why? Do they not realize you can see through these things? In which case should I say something to these women? It’s the same debate I have in the bathroom when I see someone not wash their hands. Don’t even get my started on how disgusting I think this is… and it’s not as uncommon as you would think.  What do you think? Do you call people out on their social faux pas? Someone please weigh in!

Ok ok I realize you did not come here to listen to me rant. You came here to eat. So I will let you. I hope that you like this recipe everyone! And as always if you want to stay in the loop on what’s happening on the blog plus learn about many other recipes and health information please follow me on Pinterest, Facebook and Instagram.

Have a great weekend!
