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.
