Homemade Tomato Bisque (soup) image

I love tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches...especially in the winter. Since my friend Eileen gave me this recipe, I no longer buy Campbell's Tomato soup because this is so much better!

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 can(s) 28oz. crushed tomatoes
2 beef bouillon, cubes
1 Tbsp sugar
1 bay leaf
1/4 tsp dried basil
1/4 tsp pepper
1 stick butter
1/3 c flour
4 c milk

Steps:

  • 1. Combine first 6 ingredients in large pan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered for 30 min.
  • 2. In another medium pan melt butter and add the flour, blend and cook over medium heat. Stir constantly. Cook until bubbly. Add 4 cups of milk and bring to a simmer stirring constantly. Cook for 2 minutes then add to tomato mixture and blend and heat through. If you prefer this thinner, you could add more milk or a little half & half.
  • 3. Serve with grilled cheese sandwiches or crackers. The consistence of this soup is so satisfying and filling.
