Note: Ingredients are optional and can be subbed with similar other ingredients.

3 or 4 servings

Ingredients:
* 1 onion
* 1 shallot
* 1 or 2 garlic cloves
* 1 generous glug of oil (used a combo of canola, olive and butter)
* Spices (Used salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, a generous pinch of Urfa pepper, and a generous pinch of a generic Italian blend)
* 28 oz can of tomatoes (if whole, break up with your hands - we prefer diced fire roasted tomatoes)
* 1 cup broth (used 1 cup water and 1 teaspoon better than bouillon organic chicken)
* Water
* Cream (totally optional - more for color, especially if you already used butter to cook the alliums)

Method:
# Chop alliums (onions, shallot, garlic). Saute in your generous glug of oil. Add spices. Cook until soft.
# Add can of tomatoes and cup of broth. Simmer for 20 or 30 minutes. Vary heat depending on whether you want it to thicken. (Note: it will thicken too if you just let it stand, so be prepared for that.)
# Taste. Add salt, black pepper and/or cream depending on taste and how red you like it.
# Turn off heat and cool. You don't need to cool it much if you're using an immersion blender, but let it cool significantly if using a blender.
# Blend. For smooth soup, blend it all. For chunk soup, blend half of it or use an immersion blender.
# Reheat to serve. Serve, ideally, with grilled cheese or quesadillas.
