Fresh Tomato Basil Soup

Thanks to Bernice Quigley for sharing this recipe!

This would go well with our 7-up biscuits.

2 teaspoons sugar
12 medium tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and diced fine
2 cups chicken or beef broth
1 tablespoon minced parsley
12 torn fresh basil leaves
1 teaspoon thyme
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

In large saucepan, over medium heat, saute onion and garlic in butter until onion

is soft. Stir in flour and sugar until blended. Add tomatoes and continue to cook for 10 minutes longer.

Put tomato mixture into food processor or blender and process until smooth. Add

tomato mixture to broth. Stir in parsley, basil, thyme, salt, and pepper.
