Pour into a stock pot or casserole and cook over low-moderate heat to boil for 10 minutes.

In a frying pan, place the olive oil and fry the garlic and onion there until transparent. Then, add the chopped tomatoes, chopped bell pepper, and herbs to taste. Add to the pot and cook boiling for 10 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve with some toasted seeds on top.
