Best Tomato Soup

I didn't do this today but I've been thinking about it a lot recently. My last bowl is in the freezer calling to me so it's about time to make some more of my Creamy Tomato Soup.

Recipe:

Ingredients...

• approximately 2 pints of canned tomato sauce

• approximately 2 pints of canned diced tomatoes

• approximately 1 pint of your favorite salsa; hot, medium, or mild -- your choice

• salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder to taste

• approximately 1 pint of heavy cream; yep, this isn't for diets!

Instructions...

• combine first 4 ingredients in a large saucepan and bring to a boil

• simmer covered, stirring occasionally, for a couple of hours

• gradually, add in the heavy cream, stirring thoroughly

• return to a boil then simmer uncovered for at least an hour; this allows the soup to reduce and thicken

  
  

Easy, right! But the best tomato soup I've ever had. You can substitute Rotel tomatoes for the salsa, if you prefer. Serve hot with or without that grilled cheese sandwich. Freezes well. Makes a couple of quarts.

mmm mmm good!!!
