Cream of Fresh Tomato Soup

Much better than brand name soups, if you like homemade. Creamy and flavorful.

Ingredients

• 2 large tomatoes, chopped


• 1/2 cup chopped onion


• 1/2 teaspoon white sugar


• salt to taste


• ground black pepper to taste


• 2 tablespoons margarine


• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour


• 2 cups milk

Directions

1. Simmer tomatoes, onions, sugar, and salt and pepper. Once onions are soft, strain. Set liquid aside.


2. In a saucepan, melt the butter or margarine. Stir in the flour. Whisk in the milk, and cook until thickened. Slowly add the reserved tomato liquid, and gently heat. Serve hot.
