I love the tomato mac soup that a local diner sells. They make it meatless (unlike most tomato mac soups) and I decided to attempt making my own. When I set out on this journey I realized I hadn't eaten their soup in probably a year so I really had to think hard when creating this dish. The soup turned out delicious and I have made it a few times since.
Meatless Tomato Macaroni Soup
Chop one medium onion and slice three celery ribs. Heat about 1 tablespoon butter in a dutch oven. After butter melts add onion and celery and cook until tender, about 5-10 minutes. Add 2 garlic cloves (less if your not a huge fan of garlic), minced. Cook thirty seconds. Add 1 cup fat free half and half, one can tomato soup, and one can diced tomatoes. I did not bring my soup to a boil. I just heated it till it was hot. Season with about 2 teaspoons chicken soup base and pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
