#toc2 - This is an incredibly simple, comforting and a wholesome soup made of tomatoes. Tomato, as we know, is a rich source of nutrients and vitamins like A, C, K & B6. It is good for our eyes, fights against cancer, urinary infections, kidney problems and diabetes. It also improves digestion, lowers cholesterol levels, detoxifies our body and reduces inflammation among other benefits.

So try having it in a very satiating soup form. There are many variations to it. For instance, you can add few kaffir lime leaves or curry leaves instead of coriander leaves to alter the flavor. Enjoy it with some bread sticks. tortilla chips or croutons for a light hearty meal.
