It’s hard to beat a steaming bowl of creamy tomato soup on a chilly day. In this case, the soup is not only delicious, but it’s also 100% vegan, Paleo and Whole30 compliant! Roasting the tomatoes first gives the soup a burst of extra flavor, and prepping it in the blender gives it a smooth, even texture that appeals to parents and kids alike.

• 3 Tbsp. olive oil

• 1 1/2 tsp coarse salt
