Tomato Soup

I know the weather is warming up but I just finished making a wonderful homemade tomato soup. This is just delicious with a grilled cheese sandwich made on fresh french bread. I added left over cooked sweet potato we had in the fridge. A regular potato would be good as well.

Tomato Soup
1 onion
2 garlic cloves
2 carrots
2 celery stalks
2 cups chopped tomatoes
1 ½ cups veggie broth
1 tbs basil
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup milk

Chop all veggies. Heat olive oil over med-high heat. Add all chopped vegetables and sauté until onion is soft and translucent. Reduce heat to medium and add tomatoes, broth, and spices Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low. Simmer 30 minutes stirring occasionally. Mix in the milk and puree the soup to your desired consistency. Remove from heat and serve.
