This 5 Ingredient Sun-dried Tomato Soup came about out of sheer laziness. I was too lazy to go to the grocery store and I wanted to use up some pantry ingredients.
I searched through my pantry and fridge to see what I could come up with. Since I was in a soup mood, this 5 Ingredient Sun-Dried Tomato Soup with coconut milk was what I decided on.
I love easy recipes with minimal ingredients, like my 5 Ingredient Curry Peanut Pumpkin Soup, my 3 Ingredient Pinto Bean Soup, and my 3 Ingredient Vegan Chili.
Recipes with few ingredients are my vegan go-to meals of choice when I go camping. Setting up the campsite can be a lot of work, so when I want to eat, I don't want a meal that takes long.
Other soup recipes to try are my Sweet Potato Soup with Toasted Pecans, Sweet Potato Soup with Rosemary, and my Creamy Roasted Cauliflower Soup.

❤️ Why You'll Love It
- It is rich and comforting.
- It is made in minutes with pantry staples.
- It is made with only 5 ingredients.
🧾 Ingredients
- Crushed tomatoes: I used canned crushed tomatoes for the bright sweet flavor. You could also use diced tomatoes or fresh tomatoes, just peel them first.
- Sun-dried tomatoes: Add a sweet flavor. I used sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil. You also could use dry sun-dried tomatoes.
- Coconut milk: Replaces cream and makes it dairy-free. I used full-fat coconut milk because I like the creamy rich flavor. You could also use light coconut milk, but it won't be as rich.
- Fresh basil: Adds a herby anise flavor. You could also use dried basil.
- Garlic: Adds a pungent flavor.
- Salt and pepper: Adds flavor and enhances flavor. (Not counted as ingredients.)
- Water: Thins out the soup. You could also use vegetable broth. (Also not counted as an ingredient.)
