Chunky Tomato Rice Soup

SERVES: 5

COOK TIME: 35 Min

Tomato soup is so familiar to us that we might think it's kind of boring. But what if we add some rice and chunky tomatoes? We promise...instead of being bored, you're gonna be wowed!

What You'll Need

1 (28-ounce) can whole tomatoes, coarsely chopped (see Note)
3 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 cup (two 5.5-ounce cans) tomato vegetable juice
1 cup uncooked long- or whole-grain rice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons dried basil
1 teaspoon garlic powder

What to Do

In a large saucepan, combine all ingredients over medium-high heat and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 20 minutes. Remove cover and cook 10 more minutes. Serve hot.

Note

To use fresh tomatoes instead of canned, place 5 medium-sized tomatoes in a pot of boiling water for 10 seconds. Remove the tomatoes with a slotted spoon and allow to cool slightly. Peel and coarsely chop. Combine with the remaining ingredients and proceed as directed.

Don't forget to add sugar!!! one tablespoon of sugar cuts the acid of the tomatoes for those of us who have delicate stomachs! I ust a bit of sugar in my marinara sauce, too.
