Creamy tomato sauce (alternate recipe)

We were out of tomatoes one night and I didn’t feel like going to the store, so I decided to experiment with a can of tomato soup and make my creamy tomato sauce a different way. This makes a smoother sauce than my other recipe (here).

Ingredients:
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 can tomato soup (I used a 10.75-ounce can)
  • 1/2 cup shredded or grated Parmesan cheese, or an “Italian blend” cheese
  • 1/2 tablespoon oregano, basil, or Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
  • Pinch of salt or garlic salt

1. Warm the tomato soup in a small pot, according to the can’s directions - but do not add water. Add the heavy cream and stir until well-blended.
2. Add the cheese, then the seasonings.
3. Stir occasionally over medium-low heat until ready to use.
