INSTRUCTIONS
submitted by: mccullou@oanet.com (Jo-Anne McCullough) Hi Dave! I love
to cook and have been enjoying all the new recipes I keep receiving.
Since I'm trying to watch my fat intake, I'm especially interested in
low-fat recipes that taste good. I hate feeling deprived!! I thought
that I might pass along this recipe that comes from the Betty
Crocker's Easy Low-Fat Cooking book. 18% calories from fat. Heat oil
in 8-quart Dutch oven over medium heat. Cook garlic and onion in oil
about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onion is tender. Stir in
remaining ingredients except cheese; break up tomatoes. Heat to
boiling; reduce heat. cover and simmer 1 hour. Serve with cheese. 10
servings. I've made this soup several times now and it freezes great.
As I have a full-time job outside the house, I cheat and use Vegeta or
Bovril vegetable broth powder. I throw in a whole 48 oz can of tomato
juice and water to make up the difference. I also find it easier to
break up the whole tomatoes with my hands before I add them to the
soup. Don't omit the wine in this, as I feel that this is what gives
it so much flavour. My eight year old daughter calls it Yummy Soup
when I serve it over hot pasta. We like bows or radiatorre best. Buon
appetito!! PS: I'm currently living in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada and
spring is just beginning here. I envy those of you who live in warmer
climates. PLease drop me a line if you enjoy this recipe. DAVE
