1-2servings

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons extra- virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons chopped shallot
  • 1 garlic clove, peeled and minced
  • 1 (14.5- ounce) can diced tomatoes, opened
  • 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 slice hearty white sandwich bread, torn into 1- inch pieces
  • 1 teaspoon packed brown sugar

Directions

  • In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium- low heat for 1 minute (oil should be hot but not smoking). Add shallot and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
  • Pour tomatoes and their juice into the saucepan. Stir in broth, bread and sugar. Increase heat to medium- high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until bread starts to fall apart, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove pan from heat. Let tomato mixture cool for 5 minutes.
  • Transfer tomato mixture into a blender jar. Place lid on top of blender and hold lid firmly in place with a folded dish towel. Process until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour soup into bowls or mugs and serve.
