Tomato Soup


So it has been stormy here in Kansas this evening so I thought I would post a recipe for tomato soup :)

Usually tomato soup is made with heavy cream but not this one! BUT it is still creamy and delicious and doesn't hurt my husbands stomach!

Tomato Soup

1 yellow onion
1 t minced garlic
5 cups diced tomatoes (peel them first) OR 2 cans diced tomatoes (16 oz each)
1 (13.5 oz) can full-fat coconut milk
1 t sea salt (don't use if you are using canned tomatoes)
1 t black pepper
1 T coconut oil

Heat coconut oil in a soup pot over medium high heat.  Dice your onion and heat until onions start to caramelize.  Add your garlic and cook an additional minute.

Add the diced tomatoes and cook for 10 minutes stirring often.
Add the coconut milk, salt, and pepper, and heat until simmer.
Pour your mixture into a vitamix or blender and blend until smooth.



I know, not the most amazing picture but oh my goodness. SO good!!!

Eat it with this chicken and you will be in comfort heaven! 


Again sorry for the bad pictures but this was so good! 

Greek Chicken 

1 whole chicken
1 lemon cut in half
sea salt 
olive oil
dried parsley 
pepper 

1-2 garlic bulbs 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Remove giblets from your chicken.  Rinse and pat it dry with paper towels.  Put the lemon halves in the chicken cavity.  Lather your chicken with salt, pepper, and parsley. Place in a roasting pan (or if you don't have money to buy a roasting pan put it on a cookie sheet, with a rack on top ** see picture for reference). 

Bake for 30 minutes at 400 degrees.  Cut the tops off of your garlic and drizzle with olive oil.  Put on the rack with your chicken and bake for an additional 30-45 minutes or until internal temp reaches 190 degrees.  Remove from your oven and tent with foil for 10-15 minutes.
