Happy Wednesday, Slow Cookerers!
Am I allowed to say that I hate 2020?
I'm a pretty optimistic person -- some would even say that I'm optimistic to a fault.
but I gotta tell you --- I am so very very OVER this year.
I looked it up -- we've got another 148 days left until 2021. And I know things won't magically be better next year, but I'm still looking forward to it.
So.
148 days left in this year. That's an awful lot of crockpot recipes for you to try! And if you haven't tried to make homemade, from scratch, tomato soup, you should.

I hate tomato soup from the can. I hate it. I think it looks gross, smells gross, and tastes like metal.
It also has wheat starch in it for some stupid reason.
Hmm. It looks like I have rather strong feelings about canned tomato soup. I should probably talk to someone about that.
;-)
But I can't seem to get enough of fancy restaurant tomato soup.
It tastes much different than canned soup---it's both sweet and tangy, and the bit of cream leaves a nice velvet layer on your tongue.
This is a great way to use up a tomato surplus from your garden.
