Ingredients

•2 cans crushed tomatoes
•1 onion, diced
•2 cloves garlic, minced

Steps

1.Melt the butter and sauté the onion and garlic until softened, about 5 minutes.
2.Stir in the crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth, and sugar, then simmer for 10 minutes - the sugar is what balances the acidity of canned tomatoes instead of leaving the soup sharp and tinny.
