I made this soup for two (ate it all myself, though) a couple days ago and am going to make it again in just a few minutes. It's very good and lends itself well to adding a variety of spices. All the ingredients I used are shown in the picture above.
1/2 can of tomatoes (a fresh tomato would be even better) drained
1/2 can of chicken broth (I need a homemade alternative)
1 Tbsp of tomato paste
1/4 cup or so of cheese
I put the above ingredients into my uber blender, the Vitamix, and blended till smooth. If I had had an onion, I would've thrown that in there as well. I could've been done at that point, but I had other plans.
I had cooked some rice in a heavy sauce pan before making the soup. When the soup mixture was smooth (and warmed from the blending), I added it to the rice. To this mix I added some rotisserie chicken and then simmered for a while.
The soup has a nice flavor prior to mixing with the rice and the chicken. I would happily eat that alone without adding any other spices, but adding the soup to the rice and chicken diluted the flavor, so add'l spices are then needed.
