Y'all, we just got a serious cold front coming through and it is time for a big bowl of soup. With the Indian Summer that we've had going on out here in Oklahoma I thought that this day might never come!
I indulged in two bowls of this tomato basil soup today and thought y'all might want to make some for yourself! It only makes around 6 servings, so you'll want to go ahead and grab your stock pot so you can double this recipe. It's around 100 calories per bowl, so you're fine to grab a second helping!
I love how this recipe transforms totally average ingredients into out-of-this world deliciousness:
seriously, just grab store brand ingredients y'all |
ingredients:
can of crushed tomatoes (24 oz)
3 cups water
2T tomato paste
2t sugar
1.5t sea salt
bunch of fresh basil (chopped)
0.5t fresh pepper
1c heavy cream
directions:
1) combine tomatoes, water, tomato paste, sugar, salt and basil in a pot
2) bring to a boil and then reduce to simmer for 20 minutes
3) stir in pepper and cream, simmer for 2 minutes
serve alone or with salad, grilled cheese, crusty bread....the possibilities are endless.
