Have Your Way With Paper

DD cooked a batch of soup in her crockpot. It was so yummy I made my own batch.
Hers:
Fill crockpot to the brim with tomatoes cut in half and tough core spots trimmed out and add about 10 cloves if fresh garlic. Cook on low over night and blend up well with a stick or hand blender and serve.
Mine:
Same as above but I started with the garlic in a regular large pot, added some onion, lots of fresh basil and cilantro, a few carrots cut up, a small soft zucchini sliced I was almost gonna pitch, and a medium hot banana pepper. Filled up the pot with tomatoes and simmered on the stove top for 2-3 hours. Blended it all up till smooth, but still somewhat thick. Yummy! I might freeze what is not eaten in the next 24 hrs. or so.

Sounds yummy!

Yours sounds very yummy!

Sounds very, very fresh! And, I don't even like tomato soup!

Sounds great Robin, thanks! I've only recently discovered I like tomato soup...only if it has basil!! Can't do the condensed canned stuff, but like the Campbells Select variety w/ basil! I'll defintely try this! Could probably use up the ton plus of grape tomatoes I have too huh?

So you didn't peel the tomatoes or anything huh? Going to try this today...

This sounds yummy! Thanks Robin!

love tomato soup, but more cream tomato..nice grilled cheese goes great with it!..

Thanks robin, never thought of making my own!
