Recipe for Chunky Tomato Soup
I just love tomato soup. Sometimes, however, I want something a bit heartier than can be found in a can. This hearty recipe is just perfect for those cold winter nights and warms both the body and the soul.

Leeks
Remove the tough green leaves and the root ends of the leeks. Cut the remainder lengthwise. Wash well to remove any dirt and grit that is often found in leeks. Then roughly chop.2
Sauté
Sauté the leeks, onions, and garlic until translucent in a 3-quart saucepan over medium heat. (About 7 minutes.)3
Add
Add the chicken stock, diced tomatoes, parsley, thyme, and bay leaf. cover and simmer for 20-30 minutes.4
Finish
Remove from heat. Take out the bay leaf and discard. Stir in the honey and the soy sauce or hot sauce if desired.Tip
Some people like to add some soy sauce (2 teaspoons) to this soup recipe. I, however, prefer some hot sauce. Try the brand called Chalula. This is a creamy hot sauce with an excellent flavor.
