  • Chef Knife
  • Measuring Cups
  • Measuring Spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 28 oz Diced tomatoes
  • 9 oz Chicken Broth

  • 2 Tbsp White sugar

Instructions
 

  • Mix tomatoes, chicken broth, butter, sugar, onions and soda in a stock pot.

  • Use an immersion blender to get the texture you desire.
  • Heat cream in double boiler.
  • Add cream to hot tomato mixture.

Notes

Try adding chopped basil for a delicious Tomato Basil Soup or cheese tortellini for a savory Tomato Tortellini Soup.
