1 medium Vidalia onion, chopped
1 stalk celery, plus 2 tablespoons of chopped celery leaves
1 Fresno chili, chopped
1 tablespoon tomato paste

In a large pot over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons olive oil, Vidalia onions, celery and fresno chilies. Let cook until tender, then add in tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes.
Add tomatoes and chicken broth, let simmer for 8-10 minutes. Add the toasted country bread, then use an immersion blender to blend until smooth.
