as soon as cool(er) weather hits dallas, i love bringing out fall-ish recipes for soups, chili, stews, etc. my mom gave me this recipe a couple of years ago and it has become one of our favorites. the past week has been a rough one in the cornwell household as all three of us have had some cold junk. not-so-much-fun. having colds coupled with the chillier tempatures and the arrival of october, made this soup a part of our menu for today. nick requested it actually... it's one of his favs.
tomato basil soup
*2 cloves garlic, minced
*1 1/2 t. olive oil
*28 oz. can crushed tomatoes
*10.5 oz can condensed chicken broth
*1 1/3 c. water
*1/4 t. pepper
*3/4 c. heavy whipping cream
*2 T. fresh basil, finely minced
*2 t. sugar
- in a large pot, sautee garlic in olive oil
-add tomatoes, broth, pepper and water
-bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 min.
-stir in cream, basil and sugar, cook for one minute; do NOT bring to a boil
we like to serve with salad and fresh bread. also works well with grilled cheese sandwiches. mmmmm.
welcome, fall. so glad you are here.
