When the weather starts to get cooler, I get the urge to start cooking again. Soups and chili are a couple of my favorite things to eat during the fall. My friend shared this amazing tomato basil soup recipe and I have to spread the love. I have made it numerous times because it's easy and delicious!

Ingredients:
2 cans Italian style stewed tomatoes
1 big jar (24-36 oz.) tomatoe juice
Fresh basil, at 15 leaves, use all you have
1/2 pint of whipping cream
1/2 stick of butter (real butter is the best, use less if you prefer)
How to cook:
1. Combine stewed tomatoes and tomato juice in a large sauce pan, bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and cook for 30 minutes. Let cool.
2. Transfer contents to a blender or food processor and blend in basil leaves.
3. Transfer back to the pan
4. Add whipping cream and butter and heat through.
5. Salt and pepper to taste.
It is tasty with Parmesan and french bread, but I love to have it with a good ole fashioned grilled cheese! I hope that you enjoy!
