1 ½ lbs tomatoes, roughly chopped

2 cups chicken stock

Water as needed

Salt and pepper

Optional:

Canned corn kernels

Cooked tiny pasta shells or rice

Parmesan cheese

Directions:

Cover the bottom of a large soup pot with oil.

Sauté the onions until soft.

Add tomatoes, stock, salt and pepper and other spices.

Simmer over medium-low heat, with the cover on, for 30-35 minutes.

Pour soup through a sieve to remove seeds and skin; rinse out pot.

Pour soup back into pot and reheat over low heat (don’t return to a boil).
