Method

-------- ------------

--------------------------------

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 large onion -- chopped

4 cloves garlic -- crushed and peeled

1 can reduced-sodium vegetable broth -- (14

ounce)

2 cups water

1/4 cup white rice

1 can crushed tomatoes -- (28 ounce)

1/2 cup silken tofu

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

6 slices baguette --

3/4-inch-thick

3 tablespoons shredded part-skim mozzarella

cheese

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add

onion and garlic and cook stirring occasionally, until

beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in broth,

water and rice; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a

simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the rice

is very tender, about 15 minutes.

 

2. Preheat oven to 450F.

 

3. Stir tomatoes, tofu and vinegar into the soup.

Remove from the heat and puree, in batches, in a

blender. (Use caution when pureeing hot liquids.)

Return the soup to the pot and reheat over medium-high

heat, stirring often.

 

4. Meanwhile, top slices of baguette with mozzarella

and place on a baking Bake until the cheese is melted

and bubbly, ¥about 5 minutes. Ladle soup into bowls

and top each serving with a cheesy crostini.

 

Makes 6 servings, about 1 1/2 cups each

 

 

Tips: Prepare the soup (Steps 1 & 3), cover and

refrigerate for up to 2 days. When ready to serve,

make crostini and reheat the soup (Steps 2 & 4).
