Jumping on the soup bandwagon here for stay at home lunches - it's been such a fuss free solution. I always have a stock of fresh veggies either from my delivery or the garden, and a side of cheese and rice crackers are part of my pantry staple these days.
I have been taking it a step further and making chicken stock on a regular basis so I have that stash of nutritional goodness in my fridge ready to go. That's another post on its own but I'll give you a hint - it involves the entire chicken. If in a pinch, trader joe's chicken stock concentrate sachets work pretty well too.
The summer harvest is just getting started with the ripest heirloom tomatoes; just the right blend of tartness and umami for this creamy tomato soup.
Takes just 5 mins prep time with 20 in the oven. That's something you can't really beat when you have a 8-6 back to back meeting day
