Hoff’s Raw Tomato Soup

Hoff’s Raw Tomato Soup

Serves: 2
meat-free, dairy-free, egg-free, oil-free, soy-free, gluten-free

Ingredients:

• 4-6 Roma Tomatoes or 1 container of Grape Tomatoes
• 1/2 Red Pepper
• 3 cups Water
• 3-4 fresh Basil Leaves
• 1 tbsp. Sun-dried Tomatoes
• 1 tsp. Smoked Paprika
• 1 tsp. Onion Powder
• 1 tsp. Garlic Powder
• 1 tsp. Sea Salt

Directions:

1. Place all ingredients in a Vitamix & blend on high for 3-4 minutes
2. Serve immediately

Hoff Thoughts: When eating raw, food should not exceed 118 degrees.  A Vitamix should raise the temperature of food 10 degrees every minute it is run. However, my Vitamix runs hotter; it's a good practice to use a meat thermometer to test how hot this soup gets based on how long you run your machine.  Three minutes for me = 115 degrees.

Happy New Year!
