Delicious Homemade Tomato Soup

It hardly seems possible that such a simple recipe could make something so divine, but this soup is to die for!

4 Tbs butter
1/2 large onion, cut into pieces
2-3 cloves garlic, peeled
2 (14.5 oz) cans Italian stewed tomatoes
1 1/2 cups chicken broth (or 1 - 14.5 oz can)
1 tsp salt

Melt butter over medium heat in a medium sized saucepan. Add onion, garlic, tomatoes, broth, and salt. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer for 40 minutes, uncovered. Blend with an immersion blender, or in batches in a regular blender. Makes about 1 quart (3-4 servings).
