Inspired by the comforting Southern tradition of home-cooked tomato soup, this upgraded version has more depth, more warmth, and more reasons to fall in love. It’s everything you crave in a tomato basil soup—rich, creamy, and soul-satisfying—with just the right touch of sweetness.

Simply add chicken or vegetable broth, tomato purée, a hint of brown sugar, and cream for a bowl that tastes like it simmered all afternoon (but only takes about 35 minutes to prepare).
