fresh tomato soup
This has got to be my favorite soup! My grandmother made it for me as a child, and I never lost the taste for it. Store-bought just won't do.

When tomatoes are at their sweetest, this fresh tomato soup must be on your menu. Not too thick, it's fresh, tangy, creamy, and rich. We can't forget, it's easy to make too. The hardest part is blending the ingredients together. You'll notice we used a stick blender instead of pouring the ingredients into a blender. If you love the combination of tomato and basil, this soup will be for you.
