I Have Used All The Tomato Gifts!
I had 10 tomatoes left after making gazpacho. If you like gazpacho, let me know. I’ll post that recipe too. Back to my point, 10 tomatoes and a crockpot for my birthday. It just seemed logical to make soup. I’m not even a big tomato soup fan, but I wished there were leftovers the next day. Check out the recipe…
Velvety Tomato (Crockpot) Soup
10 tomatoes
1 c. half & half
1 tsp. sea salt
3 T. sugar
Put tomatoes in crockpot and heat on high for 3 hours, stirring occasionally…just for fun, really. Once the tomatoes have burst and you have tomato sauce, turn off crockpot, transfer soup into bowl with pour spout. Cool in fridge 1/2 to 1 hour, so you don’t get burnt on the next step.
Pour in batches into the blender and puree tomatoes. Pour back into crockpot or stockpot and add remaining ingredients. Warm to desired temperature. Add parmesan cheese and croutons, if desired.
