Cold Tomato Basil soup

Tomato basil soup is similar to a gazpacho soup, but with a little extra flavoring. The natural sweetness of the tomatoes really comes through.

Ingredients

• 1 kg tomatoes
• 1 bunch fresh basil, chopped
• 2 cups vegetable broth (See recipe under this section)
• 2 cloves garlic
• 2 tsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• Salt and pepper to taste

Method

Place all ingredients in a blender and mix until almost smooth, or until desired consistency is reached. Transfer to a large saucepan and simmer over low heat for 10 minutes. Serve chilled.
