Ingredients
The following ingredients have 6 Servings
- 5 cups of fresh tomato puree - this was a blender full of fresh tomato chunks
- 1 stick of salted butter
- 8 oz cream cheese
- a handful of fresh basil leaves
- 1 tbsp Joy Filled Eats Sweetener (or see alternatives in recipe notes) (optional)
- salt and pepper to taste ***
Instruction
- Puree enough fresh tomatoes in a blender to equal five cups of puree. This was about 4 large tomatoes and maybe a pint of cherry tomatoes.
- Pour the puree into a large saucepan and add the butter and cream cheese. Heat to a simmer and cook until the butter and cream cheese melt. Carefully pour the soup back into the blender and add the basil (use caution blending hot liquids - always vent the lid) or use an immersion blender to puree until smooth.
