Tomato Based Soup
June Cooper

This is a fantastic and easy recipe that can feed 3, and can be a fun team effort. 
1. On a clean flat area pour your flour into a tight compact mound. 
2. Shape a whole into the middle and outwards until you make your own bowl 

in the flour. 
3. Crack open the eggs and add them directly to the center of your flour. 
4. Mend and mix the flour and eggs carefully together until completely mixed.

Once dough mixture is thoroughly mixed shape it into a ball and wrap it in 
cling wrap for it to set out 30 minutes on a counter. 

5. You can place in fridge if setting for longer, let it get to room temp before mov-
ing on. Roll the ball flat using the roller and palms of your hands. Flatten the 
dough evenly until it’s around 1/4 inch. Cut desired shape from dough. Boil in 
water until fully cooked. 

6. Add to soup or desired sauce.

1. Cut onion and green peppers together and set aside to add in to your saucepan when you 
begin cooking with oil. 

2. Carrots and garlic can be cut and put together before adding to the pan. 

3. Have a medium bowl hold the tomato sauce, tomatoes, wine and seasonings so they can 
easily be added to the recipe. 

4. In large saucepan bring olive oil to medium heat, mix in onion and green pepper and stir 
occasionally until onions are tender. 

5. Once onions begin to look transparent add carrots and garlic, cook for three minutes. 

6. Stir in bowl of tomato sauce, tomatoes, wine and seasonings-bringing the dish to a boil. 

7. Stir occasionally until the soup is boiling-reduce to medium heat and let simmer covered for 
30 minutes. 

8. Add precooked seafood and allowto simmer until seafood is brought to temp, squeeze in 
lemon juice. 

Can be cooked with Cajun powder for extra spice.

This soup is based on a Taste of Home recipe meant for seafood, but works well with pasta as well.
