Summer in a bowl. Our Farmer’s Market is on Thursday afternoons, so I might head out today and choose some fat organic tomatoes, a bell pepper, and a bunch of fragrant basil to make this tomato-basil soup in a few minutes.
The key to this soup is uber-ripe, local, organic produce. The flavored olive oil and touch of vinegar makes the flavors sing!
