6-ingredient creamy tomato basil soup 🍅 🌿 🥣
I created this recipe on the spot after realizing I had some half and half we needed to use so I made this for dinner last night and it was delicious! It only took about 20 minutes and seriously beat out any boxed soup I have had. Homemade and easy, now that’s a win!

- 1 onion, roughly chopped
- 1-2 tbs butter (can sub olive oil)

- Step 4 If you won’t enjoy till later simply transfer back to the pot and reheat when you’re ready.
This sounds perfect but what is a basil cube? Is this a frozen product like frozen garlic or ginger?
Yes exactly!
