CREAMY TOMATO GORGONZOLA SOUP WITH BASIL (LOWER CALORIE)
Another Skinny Bride recipe -- I actually found this one on sparkpeople.com, and since I LOVE LOVE LOVE this soup from Kroger's Soup bar but did not appreciate all the calories and fat, I found this recipe to cure my craving without me killing myself on the treadmill! Serving size is a two cup serving which is large, but if you eat this with a simple salad with just some vinegar, it makes it a meal. So it might serve 8 if you just had cups instead of bowls.

Steps:
- Pulse the drained tomatoes in a food processor until smooth, about ten 1-second pulses followed by about 20 seconds continuous; set aside.
- Cook the garlic, tomato paste, and oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the tomato paste begins to brown, about 2 minutes. [note: This is best in a regular pot, not non-stick, but non-stick is fine if that's all you have.].
- Stir in the pureed tomatoes until the tomato paste mixture has thoroughly combined with the tomato puree.
- Cook for about 5 minutes until the tomatoes are bubbling. Add the gorgonzola and stir until the cheese has melted and no longer appears as lumps in the sauce (5-8 mins).
- Add 1 pint of fat free half and half. Stir to thoroughly incorporate. Remove from heat to keep half and half from boiling.
- Off the heat, stir in the basil.
