Snow Day Tomato Soup!
We had a wonderful Snow Day with the Saints this past Sunday. We served almost 100 grilled cheese sandwiches and a giant pot of homemade tomato soup. Many asked for the recipe for this delicious and easy dump recipe so here it is! It’s even perfect for a Lenten Friday!

2 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon dried basil
