Easy Creamy Tomato Soup

Somehow life seems to be getting away from me lately.  Not sure how that happens.  But, sometimes we just need a little comfort.  A grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup fits the bill quite well!


Easy Creamy Tomato Soup

1-2 T butter or olive oil
4 cloves garlic, diced
1 med onion, diced
1 tsp salt
1 tsp dried basil
1 tsp dried rosemary
4 cans (15 oz) petite diced tomato
1 can coconut milk or 8 oz package of cream cheese
1 T honey
6 T sherry

Melt the butter.  Saute the onion, salt and garlic on medium until the onion is translucent.  Add the spices and cook for about 1 minute.  Add the tomatoes, including liquid, and the coconut milk/cream cheese.  Stir in the honey and sherry.  Cook 30-40 minutes.  Blend until smooth, being careful of the heat.  Enjoy!
