10 Minute Better Than Campbell’s Vegan Tomato Soup

This 10-minute vegan tomato soup is better than Campbell’s. Creamy, gluten-free, dairy-free, and made with simple ingredients. A healthy comfort food classic!

Better Than Campbell’s Tomato Soup

Everyone has that one meal they instantly associate with comfort. Maybe it’s your mom’s chili, your grandma’s famous sauce, warm chocolate chip cookies straight from the oven, or a bowl of classic tomato soup with grilled cheese on the side.

Comfort foods have a way of bringing us back to childhood, special moments, or simply giving us that warm, cozy sense of security we all crave.

But let’s be honest: wheat flour and high-fructose corn syrup in tomato soup? Hard pass.

You don’t need any of that to make a healthy, creamy tomato soup that’s just as good—if not better—than classic Campbell’s.

Traditional canned tomato soup isn’t even an option for many gluten-free eaters thanks to the added wheat. That’s exactly why this recipe exists. This easy vegan tomato soup is completely gluten-free, family-friendly, and guaranteed to hit all those nostalgic comfort food notes.

And the best part?

It’s cheaper per serving than Campbell’s, completely plant-based, and ready in under 10 minutes. Total win.

Ingredients

• 2 (28 oz) cans crushed tomatoes with basil (I use Muir Glen)
• 1/4 cup tomato paste
• 1 bag frozen mirepoix vegetables
• 16 oz low-sodium vegetable broth
• 12 oz soft silken tofu
• Salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning, to taste

How to Make Better Than Campbell’s Vegan Tomato Soup

1. Over high heat, add the crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth, tomato paste, frozen mirepoix, and seasonings to a large soup pot. Stir well.
2. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium.
3. Add the silken tofu and crumble it directly into the pot using a wooden spoon, mashing it against the sides. Stir and let everything heat through for about 5 minutes.
4. Carefully blend the soup in batches using a heat-safe blender until smooth and creamy.
5. Serve hot with your favorite grilled cheese.

Why This Tomato Soup Is So Good

I am not exaggerating when I say this is the best tomato soup I’ve ever had. It’s perfectly sweet, ultra-creamy, and has that classic tomato soup texture, without any unnecessary fillers.

This soup comes together in under 10 minutes, uses simple pantry ingredients, and gets a boost of plant-based protein from silken tofu, which also makes it luxuriously creamy without any dairy.

Comfort food, upgraded.
