My Favorite Kitchen Tools To Make This Recipe
From trusty pots and pans to handy gadgets, I’ve curated a list of products I use and love.
This tomato soup recipe is delicious. I especially loved the convenience of making this in the Instant Pot in under 30 minutes, but it had the same flavor profile had I let it simmer all day in the slow cooker. It is super easy to prepare, and after a quick sauté of the onions to enhance the dish with extra depth and flavor, I highly recommend this.
You can freeze the leftovers (yay!), making it an excellent option for meal prep fans. It tastes incredible the next day (even better the day after!)—perfect for “fast food” on a chilly day. Reheat a bowl at your desk or enjoy a quick lunch or dinner.
