Optional: saute the onions and garlic in a little oil.
Add all the ingredients to your soup maker and stir all the ingredients together to make sure nothing is stuck to the base.
Set the soup maker off on smooth.
Notes
You can use your favourite tomatoes, they don't need to be on the vine. Plum tomatoes as well as tinned tomatoes can be a good substitute.Extras: For a spicy twist this soup also tastes great with a chopped red chilli thrown in!
