Creamy Tomato Soup recipe



This grown-up version of the kid's favorite recipe has a hint of sherry and half-and-half to make for a luscious tomato soup.

Ingredients:

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 onions, chopped
2 cloves garlic, crushed
½ cup sherry
3 pound tomatoes, chopped
3 cups vegetable broth
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ cup half-and-half

Directions:

1) Heat oil in a large pot over medium. Add onion and garlic; cook until softened, about 5 minutes, stirring. Add sherry and bring to a boil over high; simmer until liquid cooks about, about 3 minutes.

2) Add tomatoes, broth, tomato paste, and sugar; bring to a boil while whisking to combine. Cover and simmer 20 minutes. Add oregano, salt, and pepper; simmer 5 minutes.

3) Cool 5 minutes then transfer to food processor. Puree until smooth; return to pot. Stir in half-and-half and heat over medium until warmed through. Serve warm.
