I’m feeling a bit under-the-weather today, so I thought I would share with you one of my favorite recipes for good old-fashioned Tomato Soup. I found this recipe in the New York Times a couple of months ago, and have since made this soup many times to great success. The magic ingredient here is the celery salt, so don’t try and substitute it – it’s worth a trip to the store if you don’t have it. Also I like to halve the recipe so that I don’t have to worry about left-overs. The soup keeps fine in the fridge for several days if you want to feed off of it.

I remember tomato soup as a first meal after being sick. It was served in a little bowl with toast “soldiers” to be eaten in the cosy warmth of bed. This particular soup was not this delicious recipe but good old Heinz tomato soup. Must with macaroni cheese be one of the best comfort foods.

This recipe is really excellent especially with a lovely grilled cheese on crusty bread…..
