I heated a little bit of olive oil in a sauce pan and added one large onion and 4 cloves of garlic and cooked until soft. I added 3 pint jars of tomato sauce and 1 pint of frozen veggie stock (could use water or chicken broth) and just a little pepper (I didn't add any salt since I add salt when canning). It tasted just a little bitter to me so I squeezed in a little honey. I used my hand blender to blend it all up and lunch was ready! It was so yummy!I am a mom of a child with both autism and celiac disease. This blog will hopefully help guide others who are new to the GFCF diet. This blog is not meant as the "end all know all" - I am not a doctor or a scientist, I am simply a mom feeding my family. We do use oats which many celiacs avoid. In addition to gluten and casein, we avoid nitrates and artificial colors and flavors. I also try and limit High Fructose Corn Syrup. We follow the diet as a family - everything in our house is GFCF.

I made tomato soup this weekend

how long did you let the soup simmer? or did you just warm it?
ReplyDeleteI just let it simmer long enough for the flavors to blend - maybe 20 minutes.
