     Are you looking for a good lunch idea for the week!?  If so, I have a nice fun plant based idea that will grab your attention.  This Tomato Tofu Soup will allow you to be swallowing health in every spoonful.  Every bowl is filled with single ingredient plant based foods filled with fiber, and as an added bonus you will find it giving you Queso vibes.  Each of these 6 two cup servings are only 379 calories, 51g carbs, 16.5g fiber, 34.5g net carbs, 25g protein, and 6g fat.  Ok so, I just have to point out that HUGE protein punch, and that is all coming from plants folks!  Wowzers! And what a fun way to experiment with Tofu, you will be amazed how it just takes on the flavor of what it is served with.  New ideas keep the kitchen interesting! ;)

Ingredients for 6 servings~

2.5 pounds diced Tomatoes

1 pound trimmed diced Carrots

12oz diced Onion

1 seeded and diced Jalapeno (more if desired)

1 Tablespoon chopped Garlic

1 Tablespoon Olive Oil

2 14oz containers drained Extra Firm Tofu

8oz chopped Kale

2 15oz drained Cannellini Beans (sub with favorite)

Seasoning as desired

     Toss Tomatoes, Carrots, Onions, Jalapeno, and Garlic with Olive Oil and spread on parchment lined baking sheet, roast at 400 for one hour.  Remove, and cool slightly.  Add to heavy duty blender along with Tofu and blend to desired consistency.  If you would like to add the Kale and Beans to blender you can do that as well.  Otherwise, just stir in Kale and Beans, then season as desired.  Divide into 6 equal parts, approximately 2 cups, and store in containers if using for the week for lunches.  Enjoy ;)
