Tomato Soup

3 T melted butter
1 medium onion, diced
1 46-oz can diced tomatoes
1 T chicken base
3 T sugar
pinch of salt
black pepper to taste
1 1/2 c heavy cream
chopped fresh parsley
chopped fresh basil

Saute diced onions in butter until translucent. Add canned tomatoes, tomato juice, chicken base, sugar, pinch of salt, pepper, and stir. Bring to near boil, then turn off heat. Add in cream, parsley, basil and stir.

Amazing if you combine with grilled cheese. We enjoy sourdough with Havarti cheese, all melted and gooey and buttery crunchy to dip in our soup. Sure to warm you up on the coldest days even Wisconsin has to offer!
