Tomato Soup



This is one of the easiest soups I've ever made. Use different variety and colors of tomatoes, and it will be a crowd pleaser!


WHAT YOU NEED

3 or 4 different kinds of tomatoes
12-15 leaves of basil
1/2 to 1 medium onion (1/2 for 4 serving, full for 6 or more)
1/3 cup of heavy cream (Optional)
Salt & Pepper
2 cloves of garlic
Olive oil

LET'S GET STARTED

1) Heat oven to 375
2) Chop up all the tomatoes and onions, and place them flat on a tray
3) Add the garlic and basil, then drizzle the olive oil on top (about 4 tablespoon)
4) Put tray in the oven until they soften (about 30 minutes)
5) Once out of the oven, put the baked mixture in a pot on the stove top. Add 1 cup of water (2 if serving 8)
6) Bring to a boil, then use the blender to turn it into a smooth consistency.
7) Add salt & pepper to taste
8) If a creamy consistency is desired, add the heavy cream.

Enjoy!
