Pour the soup back into a pot and adjust seasoning if you wish. Add salt if you need some.

Notes
The recipe serves 3 and contains 6 net carbs per serving. Each serving is 1 cup.
Cayenne pepper is optional if you don't like it spicy, but it helps cut down on the acidity of the tomatoes.
Use
fire-roasted tomatoes
for a stronger, smoky flavor.
Another alternative to help with the acidity is by adding a low-carb sweetener like
monk fruit sweetener
,
stevia
, or
allulose
.
If you don't want to use a regular blender, you can use an
immersion blender
instead to blend your soup.
You can also coarsely blend the soup to make it chunkier if that's what you prefer.
For more creaminess, add some cream cheese or a dollop of sour cream.
