This part is optional, but the bacon adds a really great dimension to the flavor.
Scoop out the bacon onto a towel to reserve for later.
Cook until the vegetables are mostly tender, about 5 minutes.
Tomato and bacon soup
Scoop all the veggies from the stockpot in to afood processor.
Now add in some of the chicken broth and let it run a little longer until smooth.
Scoop it back into the stock pot.
You dont want them completely smooth.
Trust me, you want to usefireroasted tomatoesas they add a lot of flavor depth to this soup.
Now pour the tomato mixture back into your large pot.
Note:If you are using garden fresh tomatoeshere is how you fire roast tomatoes.
When you are ready to serve the soup, add a splash of cream or whole milk.
