Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 can Canned tomatoes
  • 1 medium Onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 4 cups Vegetable broth
  • 1 cup Heavy cream or milk For a lighter option, use half-and-half.
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Pepper
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 tsp Basil (optional) Recommended for additional flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat.
  2. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until onions are translucent.
  3. Add canned tomatoes and vegetable broth, bring to a simmer.
  4. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Let it cook for about 30 minutes, then blend until smooth.
  6. Stir in heavy cream or milk, heat through, and serve warm.

Notes

For extra creaminess, use half-and-half instead of just heavy cream. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for about 3 to 5 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
