Creamy Tomato Soup with Corn, Chicken and Bacon

Creamy soup without the guilt, yes you heard me correctly πŸ™‚Β  Have you ever used buttermilk in place of heavy cream for cream soups? Well, it works beautifully and really cuts down on fat and calories, woohoo!

I will be the first to admit that I don’t use it all the time, heaven knows I love my heavy cream, but sometimes it is a great option….like in this speedy tomato soup that’s done in about 15 minutes.

I love picking up some nice bread bowls from the grocery store to serve homemade soup in. Feels kinda like you are eating at a restaurant, you know? I added a small can of Mexicorn from Green Giant that has some red and green peppers mixed in. If you can’t find it at your grocery store, just a normal can of corn is fine πŸ™‚

Hope you all enjoy!

Here’s your simple line-up. Nothing too crazy πŸ™‚

How to Make This Healthy Tomato Soup

Mmmm, bread bowl! Cut out the centers and you are ready to go.

A little onion, garlic and two cans of diced tomatoes πŸ™‚Β  Place them all into the food processor, mixing until smooth.

They’ll be nice and pureed like so.

Add your corn.

…and your seasonings.

Time for the buttermilk.

Add your shredded chicken and bacon….and it’s time to eat!

Place soup inside your bread bowl, mmmmm!
