5 MINUTE SUNDRIED TOMATO SOUP

laura
Have you ever walked into a grocery store at 4:57 p.m., looked at the mindboggling selection of grocery goods, and still had no idea what to cook for dinner? This simple recipe was born on a night such as that. I'd run out of fresh food in the fridge, fleeing to the store for a last minute...something...walked past the olive bar and wondered if I could blend together fresh, simple tomato soup with a pint full of those basic ingredients. Five dollars and fifteen minutes later, I was home and spooning giant heaps of homemade tomato soup into bowls for my children. They promptly responded by running to the kitchen table, slurping down every bite, then kissing me on the nose with a thank you. A very lovely end to a story which started with dire straights just a matter of minutes before.
