Chalet Girls Chunky Tomato And Basil Soup Recipes

MAMU'S CHUNKY TOMATO BASIL BISQUE SOUP

Steps:

• Saute the veggies in butter and olive oil combo until softened. Add tomato ingredients and spices. Simmer for 3 to 6 hours. Adjust thickness with more chicken broth or tomatoes.
• About 5-10 minutes before serving, add the cream and cream cheese.

CHUNKY TOMATO BASIL SOUP

Steps:

• In a large pot, sauté the onion in the olive oil over medium heat until browned, about 10 to 12 minutes
• Add the garlic and sauté another 3 minutes
• While onion and garlic are sautéing, open your canned tomatoes and dice the whole tomatoes.
• Add the diced tomatoes and juices/tomato puree to the pot with the sauteed onion and garlic.
• Add the vegetable stock, chopped basil and butter. Stir until butter is melted and incorporated.
• Add the baking soda. This will cause the soup to bubble up quite a bit, so make sure your pot is big enough to hold a little momentary soup fizz. The bubbles/fizz will die down after a few seconds of stirring.
• Bring pot to a full boil then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 45 minutes.
• Optional: You can blend part or all of this soup for a smoother consistency, though I like it chunky.
• Serve with grated parmesan on top. Seriously. It's the bomb!
