• 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
• 3  medium carrots, chopped (about 1 cup)

Directions

1. In a soup pot, combine all the ingredients over medium-high heat; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 1 to 2 hours. The soup will be done after about an hour, but the longer you simmer it, the heartier it will be.
