Tomato-Bread Soup

  • Tomato-Bread Soup

Description

Ingredients

  • 1c tomato sauce (the chunkier the better)
  • 1L water
  • ~¼ c olives
  • 1T olive oil
  • 3 slices of cheap bread, diced
  • ½ medium onion, diced

Cooking Instructions

Put the onion and oil in a microwave-save bowl. Cover and nuke for 1-2 minutes. Add tomato sauce and water. Stir until you have a greasy red liquid. Add olives and bread. Microwave, covered, for 3-4m. If cheese is available, consider putting some on top, when serving.

And you’re probably looking at me like I’m kidding, right now, but I eat kind of a lot of this. It’s relatively inexpensive – aside from the olive oil, but it tastes just as good with melted margarine, even if it does taste different – and it’s quick. Some tomato sauces lend themselves better to being used as soup base, but that’ll vary with your taste. If you melt the cheese into it, it’s effectively tomato soup and grilled cheese, but as a stew. *laughs*
