Tomatoes are a staple in many beloved Mediterranean dishes—including some of the most iconic soups from this corner of the world. If you want to explore the magical flavors of the Mediterranean through the realm of tomato-rich soups, these three dishes are a good place to start.
Gazpacho (Spain)
If you’re in the mood to explore the culinary heritage of Spain and Portugal, gazpacho is one of the dishes you should add to your menu. One of the most popular summer soups on the market, gazpacho is best served cold, and it owes its irresistible taste to a fusion of healthy add-ins – starting with tomatoes.
Minestrone (Italy)
From pizza to pasta, some of the most beloved dishes in the world hail from Italy – including one of the most iconic vegetable soups. Minestrone is a timeless Mediterranean classic, and it includes more veggies than we can count, but it simply wouldn’t be the same without tomatoes.
Fasolada (Greece)
Fasolada may not be as popular as the previous two soups, but it still deserves a moment of your time. Made with tomatoes and beans, this Greek soup offers an interesting pairing of flavors and it’s truly the best of both worlds.
