Sure thing!

I just use a small can of tomato paste. Thin it to desired texture with
(for me) one can of water and one can of heavy cream. A pinch of garlic
and onion powder, a little lemon pepper (or dried lemon peel and black
pepper), 1 to 2 tsp. dried basil (or 2 tbs. fresh chopped basil if you
have it), then salt to taste.

It works best to keep it simple. :-)

To make a chunky soup, add one can of diced tomatoes (or blanch and peel
3 or 4 roma tomatoes and dice those).
