Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
2 onions, sliced
2 -3 small garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
1 (32 ounce) container vegetable broth (4 cups)
2 (28 ounce) cans Italian plum tomatoes, drained
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1/4 cup vodka
6 sprigs flat leaf parsley
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
2 cups half-and-half

Steps:

  • In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring often, for 30 seconds.
  • Add the broth, tomatoes, tomato sauce, vodka, parsley, salt and sugar to the slow cooker; add the sautéed onions and garlic.
  • Cover and cook on high heat to stew the tomatoes, 5 hours. Discard the parsley sprigs.
  • Using an immersion blender or a food processor, puree the soup in batches (be careful-the liquid is hot).
  • Stir in the half-and-half. Cook in the covered slow cooker on low heat until heated through, 20 to 30 minutes.
