Creamy Tomato Soup.

This Creamy Tomato Soup came from my mission to use the 16 Roma tomatoes I found hiding in the back of my refrigerator. I knew this was their last chance to shine, so I set about to do them justice.
If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram, you know that even after I started cooking, I still wasn’t sure what to make. But as soon as I saw that lone can of coconut milk behind the pumpkin puree, I knew. It was fate. Delicious, creamy, tomatoey, fate.

Just wondering why the choice of anchovies and is there anything to use for a substition? I typically don't care for them and they are very salty!! Maybe I need to give them a second chance????
possibly 1 -2 tablespoons of soy sauce would work as a substitute? if you try it, let me know! i personally like the flavor anchovies impart. 😉
