So all those months I left the windows open, the door unlocked, sent you the GPS coordinates, and paid for the large flashing sign out front - all it would take to get you down here was Beef Wellington and/or Chicken Cordon Bleu?

I'm sorry GL that's just a bridge too far.:razz:

Government says it is. Let me make sure I've got all this straight. All I have to do to get you down here is learn how to make sourdough bread, tomato soup from scratch, beef wellington, and chicken cordon bleu. Will you be needing dessert? and how much ketchup do you figure?

Lol, I literally laughed out loud

Post it, I've never tried tomato soup that wasn't from a can.

This is the one I made and it was very good! :yay: It's not a creamy tomato soup, more of a tomato-y tomato soup. :yay:
Easy Three-Ingredient Tomato Soup
  • PREP 5mins
  • COOK 40mins
  • TOTAL 45mins
You only need three main ingredients to make this velvety, rich tomato soup recipe. This, friends is your new favorite weeknight meal.
Makes 2 generous servings
You Will Need
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 large onion, cut into large wedges
1 (28-ounce) can tomatoes, we prefer to use whole peeled or crushed, see notes for fresh tomatoes
1 1/2 cups water, low sodium vegetable stock, or chicken stock
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt, or more to taste

Directions
Melt butter over medium heat in a Dutch oven or large saucepan.

Add onion wedges, water, can of tomatoes with their juices, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a simmer. Cook, uncovered, for about 40 minutes. Stir occasionally and add additional salt as needed.

Blend the soup, and then season to taste. The soup doesn’t need to be ultra-smooth, some texture is a nice touch. An immersion blender does make quick work of this, or you can use a blender. If you use a regular blender, it is best to blend in batches and not fill the blender as much as you usually would since the soup is so hot. We like to remove the center insert of the lid and cover it with a kitchen towel while blending — this helps to release some of the steam and prevents the blender lid from popping off (which can be a big, hot mess).

Except for the blending, this is the same recipe I use for stewed tomatoes.
