This creamy calabrian tomato gnocchi soup has the perfect amount of spice and flavor to it! Inspired by Trader Joe’s calabrian chili tomato dumpling soup. You will love this homemade version!
We all know I love using Trader Joe’s products to make slightly elevated home cooked meals. However, I also love re-making Trader Joe’s products/meals at home. You never know when Trader Joe’s is going to take something off the shelves so having a copy cat version to make at home is necessary. I love their calabrian chili tomato dumpling soup. It’s probably my favorite soup they have there. This one is pretty close and super easy to make!

I used Silk dairy free heavy whipping cream for this recipe. However, any heavy cream will work for this! Also, any calabrian chili paste will work. I love Trader Joe’s Italian bomba sauce. It’s affordable and super delicious.
