Tomato Basil Soup

Another low fat, satisfying soup.

1 28 oz can diced tomatoes
1 15 oz can crushed tomatoes
1/4 c packed basil, shredded or chopped
1/2 a medium onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 c chicken broth
1/2 c milk (nonfat is fine)

In a soup pot, add a little oil, the onion, and the garlic. Cook until soft and fragrant. Add tomatoes and heat through, then add broth and basil. Puree soup in a blender or food processor or use an immersion blender to blend until smooth. Return to pot and add milk and bring to a boil.

Serve with a grilled cheese for a perfect, homemade classic combo.
