1 pound plum tomatoes -- diced

28 ounces Italian tomatoes -- - undrained and chopped

1 1/2 pounds stale Italian bread -- cubed

5 cloves garlic

1 medium leek -- white part only, washed well, chopp

1 medium onion -- finely chopped

1 dash red pepper flakes

3 1/2 cups vegetable stock

8 bunch basil leaves

2/3 cup olive oil

1 teaspoon salt and pepper -- to taste
 

Preparation / Directions:


Combine all ingredients in a heavy stockpot and stir well. Cover and simmer 45 to 60 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 1 hour. The mixture should be very thick. Before serving, stir the soup well to break up all the bread pieces. Ladle into individual bowls and sprinkle with a little extra-virgin olive oil and salt and pepper. Serve lukewarm or reheat. "Health" Magazine September, 1993 Posted by Linda Davis
