Most of the time I don't add coffee creamer and it turns out just fine. I sprinkle a bit of basil in at the end--we like that flavor.  Ingredients 1 cup chicken broth 1 oz. butter 2 Tablespoons sugar 1 Tablespoon chopped onion 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 16 oz. can diced tomatoes with juices 16 oz. can crushed tomatoes 8 oz. whipping cream 8 oz. liquid coffee creamer Directions Combine chicken broth, butter, sugar, and onion. Simmer until onions are clear. Add tomatoes and baking soda and stir well. Add cream and liquid creamer, then heat over low heat to serve.
