Recipe for Raw Tomato Soup with Basil

Prep Time5 minutes
Total Time5 minutes
Servings: 1 -2 servings

Ingredients

  • *4 fresh tomatoes preferably organic heirloom varieties, cut into quarters
  • *1 tablespoon bottled sun-dried tomatoes in oil or 3 sun-dried tomatoes, soaked in warm water to hydrate for 15-20 minutes, and then drained plus 2 tsp. olive oil
  • *1 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves
  • *1/4 tsp. Himalayan or sea salt to taste
  • *additional fresh basil and diced avocado for garnish- optional

Instructions

  • 1. Place all ingredients, except those for the garnish, in a blender (I use a Blendtec, but the Vita-Mix is also great) and process until fairly smooth.
  • 2. If you want it to be completely pureed, blend away until it's the consistency you like; I personally prefer it to retain some texture. Pour into bowl(s) and add diced avocado and additional fresh basil to garnish, if desired. Serves 1-2; I can easily eat this whole recipe myself.
