This gluten free tomato soup turned out so delicious that I couldn’t be happier. Every cook is happy when his experiments and creations work. Right? This tomato soup was on my menu all week. I made it for my family and friends. It is a quick and easy meal when you are craving something tasty and gourmet. I came up with this recipe because I wanted to make a soup similar to one I made before, but I didn’t have all the ingredients. Plus, I wanted dairy-free tomato soup. I craved pure Mediterranean soup with fruits and shrimp. It turned out beautifully. I will admit that this is one of my favorite soups. It is very easy and simple to make. Try it.
If you don’t like sweet and sour, don’t add the peaches and sugar. Add more garlic and chopped tomatoes. It will be a soup of a completely different shade. Let your imagination run wild. Have fun!

How to make gluten free tomato soup
1. Peel the carrots, cut them into slices. Peel the onions and garlic, dice them. Sweat the onions with the butter until they are translucent. Add carrots and garlic. Cook on medium heat.
2. Chop the herbs. Pour water, tomato sauce, herbs, fried carrots, onions, sugar or agave syrup and a pinch of salt into the pot. Heat over medium heat until boiling. If you’re out of garlic, add dried garlic powder. A good shrimp soup can’t do without garlic.
3. Peel and cut the apricots into cubes while the soup is hot.
4. Remove the shrimp from the freezer, soak them in warm water, then remove the shells if necessary. Never use a microwave to defrost shrimp.
5. As soon as the soup boils, add shrimp and apricots. Decorate your plate with greens you have on hand and serve. I used pea sprouts this time. Serve with toasted gluten-free bread, French baguette or your favorite bun. This tomato and peach shrimp soup is restaurant-worthy. If I ever open one, it will surely have this gourmet soup with sea and fruit flavors on the menu. Enjoy!
How to Cook Frozen Shrimp
Shrimp cook very quickly. If you buy them in red, it means they are already cooked, and you just have to heat them. You should add them at the very end, before serving. It is very easy to overcook shrimp, then they become tough and not as tasty as they should be. I mean tasteless. Additionally, you can get frozen ones that are overcooked and tough already. If you can, buy the gray ones and prepare them yourself. If the shrimp are gray in color, they should be cooked just for 1 minute. You just have to wait until they turn pink.
How to store gluten free tomato soup
Use a clean airtight container when storing tomato soup. Make sure the lid is tightly sealed. Tomato soup can last in the fridge for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to two months.
