In the 8/16 newsletter Marti in AL was wanting a tomato basil soup recipe. I have used this a few times and it is good but I am not to eat tomatoes because of the acid in it that cause me stomach problems. I still have it and raw tomatoes because I like tomatoes yes I have to pay for it in a big way. This problem I have had for a while and it is not from the soup.

Tomato Basil Soup

1 large mild onion, chopped I use 1 medium onion and 2 shallots we prefer it this way
1/4 cup butter
1-1/2 lbs. ripe tomatoes, or 28 oz. can diced tomatoes
2-1/2 cups chicken broth from the carton
3 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped take basil of the stem by stripping the basil from the stem

Saut?the onion and shallots in butter until soft. Add tomatoes and continue cooking for another minute. Pour in the chicken broth. Bring to a boil then simmer for 20 minutes. Puree the mixture in a blender, then add basil. Return to the heat until warmed.

Everyone have a great day. Nancy and 4 legged associates take care, stay safe and cool.
