BEACH BAR TOMATO SOUP
One of my favorite places to eat has a 'to die for' tomato soup. This recipe was given to me by a friend who created her own version and it comes darn close to the original. I serve it with a sprinkling of freshly ground black pepper and garlic croutons.

Steps:
- 1. Saute butter and onions. Stir in tomato soup and 2 cups half and half and begin to heat over medium-low heat.
- 2. Meanwhile, heat remaining 2 cups of half and half in microwave. Then remove wrapper from cream cheese and microwave on a plate for about 20-30 seconds.
- 3. Stir into heated half and then pour into tomato soup mixture. Add seasonings and stir until hot, being careful not to scorch the bottom of the soup. Cream cheese should melt completely. Soup can be run through a blender or an immersion blender can be used to mix everything thoroughly.
- 4. Serve in individual bowls with a sprinkling of freshly ground black pepper and croutons.
THE BEST TOMATO SOUP
Vibrantly colored, tangy and rich, our comforting tomato soup is the perfect partner for a grilled cheese sandwich - but is just as delicious on its own. Blending the soup with butter is our trick for making it creamy.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Add the celery, onions, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are softened but not browned, about 10 minutes. Stir in the crushed tomatoes. Add the broth and thyme leaves. Cover and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour.
- Let the hot soup cool for about 5 minutes or so, then transfer half of it to a blender filling no more than halfway. Add 2 tablespoons of the butter. Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth. Pour into a clean pot or container. Repeat with the remaining soup and butter. Season with salt and pepper.
- Ladle the soup into bowls and drizzle with more oil before serving.
TOMATO SOUP BARS
Certainly not "Gourmet" fare, but a really Q&E great "down-home" comfort dessert. Plus it's fun to play "guess the mystery ingredient". I have used either a confectioners sugar or a cream cheee frosting..both are good. Servings depend on how large you cut the bars
