If you’re like me, you agree that being hungry all day on a diet sucks, big time. So, you’re willing to invest a little bit of your time to make things more bearable. A little bit of your time, not hours and no fancy shit. If you’re like that, you’re gonna appreciate this recipe.

Because, all you need for this dish are 3 ingredients, a (stick) blender and 3 minutes of your time.

It’s cheap, filling and the most amazing thing about this soup is that you can easily store all the ingredients in your cupboard and make a ‘3-minute tomato soup’ in emergency situations as well.

Yeah, yeah I get it ‘not fresh’ and all that. I’ve made tomato soup from fresh tomatoes a billion times, and guess what? This one taste just as good.  The secret? A little hint of sweetener. Heck, in fact, if you’re not gonna use sweetener, skip this one. It will not taste good without a bit of sweetener.
