Ingredients
- 3 medium tomatoes, peeled and quartered
- 1-1/2 cups water
- 1/2 cup chopped onion (1 medium)
- 1/2 cup chopped celery (1 stalk)
- 1/2 of a 6-ounce can (1/3 cup) tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons snipped fresh cilantro or basil
- 2 teaspoons instant chicken bouillon granules
- 1 teaspoon Splenda or other sugar substitute
- Few dashes bottled hot pepper sauce (optional)
- Snipped fresh cilantro or basil (optional)
Directions
1. If desired, seed the tomatoes. In a large saucepan combine tomatoes, water, onion, celery, tomato paste, the 2 tablespoons cilantro, bouillon granules, sweetner, and hot pepper sauce. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, about 20 minutes or until celery and onion are very tender. Remove from heat and cool for 10 minutes.
2. Place half of the tomato mixture in a blender or food processor. Cover and blend or process until smooth. Repeat with the remaining mixture. Return all to the saucepan; heat through. If desired, garnish with additional cilantro.
3. Makes 4 servings (4 cups)
4. Chilled Fresh Tomato Soup: Prepare as above, except after blending, cover and chill soup for up to 24 hours. If desired, top chilled soup with fat free sour cream.
