Creamy Tomato Soup


Scott loves creamy tomato soup and well, I confess I have had this recipe up my sleeve for a while and just haven't gotten around to making it.  

This is one of the easiest and quickest soups to make!

I had all the ingredients in the kitchen pantry so a great soup to make at short notice.  This is a great soup just to have on it's own or to jazz up a bit with some ham and cheese toasties or some tortellini.

1 large onion, chopped
2 tins tomatoes
1 jar tomato pasata
1/2 to 3/4 cup cream
salt and pepper to taste




Saute your onions until translucent.


Add in your tomatoes, pasata, salt and pepper.  Allow to simmer for 20 minutes


Blitz with your barmix (stick blender) until desired consistency.


Turn off the heat and stir through your cream.  Sorry for the blurry picture.


I served with a couple of cooked tortellini and a sprinkle of chopped parsley.  Oh and a couple of ham and cheese toasties!

    I love tomato soup. It's pretty hot in Oz but this is definitely coming out when it cools down.

    1. Thanks Jayne. I find that sometimes you just need a bowl of soup any time of the year.
