Ingredients




2 28s Oz Cans of Tomatoes
1 bunch Large of Fresh Basil
4 cups of Tomato Juice, Veggie or Chicken Broth
1 cup of Cream (I use about ½ cup)
1 stick of Butter (I use ½ Stick)
Salt and Pepper to Taste

Preparation

1 Add together in a large pot your tomatoes and juice/broth. Let it cook on medium low heat covered for about 30 minutes. 2 When your soup is good and hot, go ahead and throw in your basil leaves. 3 Grab your emulsifier and blend up your soup. If you don't have an emulsifier, you'll need to put the soup into a blender in batches and mulch up the basil. 4 Finally you'll add in your butter and cream and let it melt down and heat back up.
