It appears I’m on a soup rampage these days, I think it has something to do with -30c temperatures but it is hard to compete with the warming awesomeness of soup. And besides they are super easy to make. Enter the google machine where I always start every soup rampage, and voila a Tomato Basil and Beef soup recipe from http://onceamonthmeals.com
Ingredients
- 30 ounces organic diced tomatoes (fire-roasted adds an even richer flavor)
- 1 cup coconut milk, canned (full fat)
- 1 Tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 cup onion, diced
- 1 pound ground beef, preferably grass-fed and grass-finished
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chicken broth, preferably homemade1/4 cup basil leaves, chopped
Directions
Add diced tomatoes and coconut milk to a blender and blend until smooth.
Heat a large stockpot over medium-high heat. Add coconut oil and saute onions until translucent.
Add ground beef and cook until brown. Drain fat. Stir in minced garlic and salt.
Pour in tomato/coconut milk mixture and chicken broth. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to simmer 10-15 minutes. Mix in fresh basil.
