1 (2 lb.) can Campbell's tomato soup
salt
pepper
Tabasco

This is an old family recipe handed down to my brother and me by our father. We have passed it along to our sons. I especially recommend it to the men who aspire to be gourmet cooks without too much fuss and effort. Shake vigorously Campbell's Tomato soup before opening. Open can (carefully). Pour contents in 1 1/2-quart saucepan, adding 1/2 can water. Stir and bring to near boil. Add salt, pepper and Tabasco to taste. May be garnished with chopped onion or grated Parmesan cheese for variety. Serve with favorite crackers and beverage. (For continued domestic tranquility, do not leave saucepan on burner.)
