Kid-friendly tomato soup: low sodium, low fat, high fiber.
Ingredients:
  • 18.20 gm olive oil
  • 1 large brown onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 8 fresh basil leaves
  • 3 medium zucchini, chopped
  • 1.5kg ripe tomatoes, chopped
  • 510.00 gm chicken style liquid stock
  • Pinch caster sugar
  • 100g stale ciabatta bread, torn
  • 50g ciabatta bread, toasted, cut into cubes, to serve
Instructions:
  • In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, sauté onion, garlic, basil, and zucchini in oil for 5 minutes until softened. Stir in tomato and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  • Pour in the stock and sprinkle in the sugar, then bring the mixture to a boil. Lower the heat and let it simmer for 30 minutes, stirring from time to time, until the tomatoes have softened and the soup has slightly thickened.
  • Place torn ciabatta in a shallow bowl and cover with 2 cups of cold water. Let it stand for 10 minutes until the bread has softened. Add the bread mixture to the soup, stir well, and cook for 3 minutes until heated through.
  • After turning off the heat, let the soup cool for 5 minutes. Blend the soup in batches until smooth. Return the mixture to the pan over low heat and gently warm for 3 to 4 minutes. Season with pepper and garnish with ciabatta cubes before serving.
