This is so yummy that as I was flipping through some of my recipes I wanted to make it right now! But, since I just ate dinner an hour ago that would be silly.
2 TBS butter or oil
2 onions chopped
2 minced cloves of garlic
1 15 oz can of tomatoes (either whole or diced)
2 cups vegetable stock (or chicken stock can be tasty)
1/4 cup uncooked rice
salt and pepper to taste
1/2-1 TBS dried basil
1/4 tsp dried thyme
2 cups half and half (1 cup milk with 1 cup heavy cream OR 1 can evaporated milk OR 2 cups cashew/almond/soy milk)
Tobasco or other hot sauce to taste
Melt butter/oil in a large saucepan and stirn in onions and garlic. Saute until soft and golden with a medium to low heat. Pour in the rest of the ingredients EXCEPT milk/cream and hot sauce. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 30-35 minutes.
Puree the soup in a blender and return to pan. Then stir in the half and half/milk in and add teh hot sauce to taste. If needed warm and then serve! This is really tasty with a dollup of sour cream on it! It's also wonderful with a sandwich. ENJOY!
