Tomato soup in a white bowl on a green wooden table with fresh tomatoes.

Ingredients 

  • 4 Tablespoons Oil
  • ½ Onion Large, cut into wedges
  • 2 cans Diced Tomatoes Low-sodium
  • cups Water
  • Salt To taste

Equipment

  • Stovetop
  • Large Saucepan
  • Immersion Blender or Regular Blender

Instructions

  • Heat oil over medium heat in a large saucepan.
  • Add onion wedges, tomatoes and their juices, and salt. Bring to a simmer.
  • Cook uncovered for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Blend the soup: If using an immersion blender, do this right in the pot. If using a regular blender, allow soup to cool slightly first. Then blend in small 1 cup batches.

  • If you have dried herbs such as oregano or thyme, those can be added to this soup as well.
  • This soup can be frozen for up to 3 months. To make reheating easy, freeze in zip-top bags in one-serving portions.
