If I had to pick a favorite soup, it would be tomato soup. This homemade version is just as easy as opening a can and so much better!
A few weeks ago I was out of town and our wonderful neighbors invited Jim over for dinner and to watch a baseball game. (Way to go Cardinals!) He was in heaven. Baseball and food, a perfect combo. When I talked to Jim that night he couldn’t stop talking about the delicious soup Katie had served for dinner. When I heard it was tomato soup, my favorite soup, I had to have the recipe and Katie graciously shared.
I have several tomato soup recipes here on the blog. I have a delicious slow cooker tomato soup as well as Fresh Tomato Soup. The Fresh Tomato Soup is a delicious recipe but it does use fresh, vine ripened tomatoes so I prefer to make it in the summer when I’ve got tomatoes in my garden or I can buy them at the farmers market. I also have a Easy Tomato Soup that is made using canned tomato soup and you just doctor it up. It’s super easy and delicious!
Today I have another tomato soup alternative for you. This recipe used canned tomatoes and it just as delicious as all the other recipes!
I tweeked the recipe just a bit and Jim gave it two thumbs up! Tomato soup is the perfect comfort food. Throw in a grilled sandwich and you’ve got heaven, especially on a cold winter’s day like we are having around here in Portland! When I was a kid I came home for lunch every day and since I grew up in Wisconsin I often walked home in the snow for lunch. My winter time lunch of choice was always a bowl of tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich.
