Easy lunch...or Tomato soup.

I just had lunch with my sister. After staring into the fridge for about fifteen minutes, not knowing what to make, she...not me...had the brilliant idea of tomato soup. This is a recipe that originally came from my mom. I don't know how often she made this soup but its always good and its a great way to use up leftovers (like rice, potatoes, anything really). Unlike most Tomato soups (at least in the states) it is not as creamy and also not as sweet. The best part about this recipe is, that it goes fast and its CHEAP and low fat...very good for a starving artistes budget and the body.

You will need:
1 large can of tomatoes with juice.
Salt
Pepper
Water
Oregano
Thyme
leftovers (if you have any)
1/2 tsp instant chicken broth.

Open the can of tomatoes and pour the entire content into a pot. Add salt, pepper, about 1/4 cup of water, a pinch of Oregano and thyme. Heat it all up on medium heat. Once it is hot, you can either with a wooden spoon or a pureé stick thing make the whole thing smooth. Add the intant chicken broth and the left overs. Heat again and serve.

P.s. Whats really delicious is if you add 1 tsp of sour cream to each bowl...it adds calories though.
