Grilled cheese and tomato soup is one of my favorite meals. There is something about the delicious combination that is so comforting! I wanted the same effect today, but I'm going for something even yummier. I love this soup because we always have these ingredients on hand, and it's so easy to toss together. Gnocchi adds a delicious twist to a pretty basic soup.
Ingredients:
-
1 tsp olive oil
-
1 small onion, diced
-
2 Tbsp minced garlic
-
3 cups chicken (or beef) broth
-
2 (14.5 oz) cans diced tomatoes
-
1 (15 oz) can tomato sauce
-
1 (10 oz) package frozen chopped spinach
-
1 tsp salt
-
½ tsp pepper
-
1 tsp dried basil
-
1 tsp dried oregano
-
1 package prepared gnocchi (found in the pasta aisle of your supermarket)
-
Garnish: shredded Parmesan and fresh parsley
Directions:
-
Heat oil in a large pot, add onion and garlic; cook 2-3 minutes, or until soft or fragrant.
-
Mix in broth, tomatoes, and tomato sauce, reduce heat. Cover and simmer 30 minutes. Stir in spinach, salt, pepper, basil and oregano. Cover and simmer 10 minutes.
-
Turn heat back up to medium high, add in gnocchi and cook according to package directions.
-
When gnocchi is finished cooking, spoon into bowls and garnish. Serve warm.
Bon appétit!
