With chilly days ahead, a pot of this easy tomato soup should be simmering on your stovetop.



I know, I know, more soup.


You’re probably wondering if The Husband is surviving on a soup-only diet these days and the short answer to that is: Almost.

I love a good soup and spend more time than I should scouring for tasty and easy recipes.


I found this one on Julie Blanner’s website, and not only is it a cinch to make, it’s delicious.


I made it during the last cold snap and served it for dinner with ham, cheese and pepper jelly buns.


The Husband was happy. You will be too.


Make it.

2 cups chopped yellow onion
