Vitamix Brittany’s Tomato Soup

This is my husband's favorite soup.  Thanks to popular Whole Food Plant Based YouTuber, Brittany Jaroudi for the original recipe which can be found in her blog.  I made it simpler by using a dump and blend method using my Vitamix that is capable of cooking or heating up.  You might like to see my other recipe which is a copy cat of the Panera Bread version.

Brittany demonstrated this during the Plant Based Pittsburgh cooking session  held at the Murrysville Library.  She and another member of the group, Linda Jones, conducted cooking presentations and tastings of soups and breads.  Other members who baked goodies were Susan Greenberg and Nedra Hazzlett.
