Syn Free Tomato and Pasta Soup - fresh delicious flavour, but simple ingredients for a perfect soup recipe for the whole family to enjoy.
This Syn Free Tomato and Pasta Soup is a huge family favourite. When my kids want soup, 9 out of 10 times this is the one they request.
They love it so much, that often when I make this for them, I will double or triple up the recipe, so I can freeze some for another day.
No heating facilities at work?
If you work a busy schedule and don't have heating facilities to warm up food and get fed up of the same old sandwiches or salads each day. I highly recommend getting a Thermos Food Flask like the one above.
Most food flasks will keep food hot for about 8 hours, which is awesome and means yo you can take all kinds of leftovers with you to work. Being able to have a good variety, makes it much healthier to stick to long-term.
This really is simple and quick to make, just a handful of basic ingredients, come together to make a tasty and filling soup.
If you can use fresh tomatoes, you will get a much better tasting soup, trust me. Fresh tomatoes have such a delicious natural sweet flavour, whereas canned tomatoes tend to be quite acidic due to the canning method.
Yes, fresh tomatoes can sometimes be a pain to peel, but I have a handy Serrated Peeler, that peels tomatoes so effortlessly and then they can be quickly chopped and added to the pan.
For the pasta, you could use any pasta you like. I prefer to use a small pasta like farfalle, which are pretty little pasta bows and look perfect in this soup.

This soup is great just served as it is, but if you have a HEa spare, then add some parmesan or cheddar added to the top gives it a lovely cheesy flavour.
You could even choose some protein like shredded chicken, sausage, or ground meat to add to this too. I often add a little leftover cooked chicken if we have some left after Sunday dinner.

Have made this soup twice now. Me and my husband absolutely love it. I use tiny farfalline pasta in it so it isn't too chunky. Highly recommended. We have recipes from your website every night. Thanks so much x

I am not a Slimming World member, but I do eat healthily, this is such a tasty and filling soup while still being low fat, this is the second time I’ve made it and has turned out to be one of our favourites, living in Spain I have access to so much fresh produce and tomatoes are 1€ per 3 kilogram bag at the moment!
