goodbye campbells



this tomato soup was mmm good. you can tell by ella's empty bowl-sorry its a little blurry. i sort of made this recipe up so its probably not exact but i'll try.

tomato soup

small onion chopped
tsp. minced garlic
1 2/3 cups finely chopped carrots
3/4 cup celery chopped
some fresh basil
2 cup fresh tomatoes chopped
about 1 cup tomato puree (i added to taste)
2 cups chicken broth
sour cream

so put onion, garlic, carrots, celery and little olive oil in soup pan and saute about 3-5 minutes. then add tomatoes, puree and broth. bring to a boil, then simmer for about 40 min. then put in blender or magic bullet and process until smooth-mine still had some texture and i liked it.
put back in soup pot and mix in like 1/2 cup sour cream. the recipe i was looking at for ideas called for heavy cream and more of it. then season with salt and pepper and whatever else you like. it was really good-and there was no food coloring or high fructose corn syrup.
