A rich tomato bacon soup.So warm and filling on those cold winter nights. My cousin, who cooks at a Hospice Center shared this with me.To make it quick, I use pre cooked bacon. Use real butter, not oleo. Your finished soup will be so much better.I like to serve this with a green salad and a hard roll.Sourdough rolls are great, but any crispy crust bread will do. Ingredients:
10 slices crisp cooked bacon |
1/4 cup butter |
4 tablespoons flour |
2 -3 dashes nutmeg |
1 (15 ounce) can low-sodium low-fat chicken broth |
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice |
3/4 cup half-and-half cream |
black pepper |
Directions:
1. In heavy saucepan melt butter.
2. Stir in flour.
3. Gradually whisk in half & half and chicken broth.
4. Add nutmeg.
5. Cook and stir until thickened over medium heat.
6. Stir in diced tomatoes along with their juice.
7. Dice bacon and add to soup mixture.
8. Heat through and season with black pepper.
