Light Creamy Tomato Bisque

Hey friends, welcome back to Foodie Friday!

Where every 2nd Friday of the month I, Sandra from A Dash of Sanity, will be sharing one of my favorite recipes with the friends and followers of Love Bakes Good Cakes.

I absolutely love soups for the fall and winter months, they are always so warm, inviting and make the house smell amazing! I always tend to lean towards soups that are creamy and have lots of cheese. So when I recently made my favorite soup, Tomato Bisque I thought of trying to slim it down, using fat-free milk, 1/3-less-fat-cream cheese and then just topped with a little cheese, instead of adding it into the soup. Viola, it turned out amazing! So I thought I would share this recipe, so that you can enjoy a soup classic but with less calories. Cheers to a new year!

Enjoy!

Here are some of my favorite winter recipes, hope you come over and check them out.

Creamy Broccoli Cheese Soup

Slow Cooker Lasagna

Sicilian Chicken Soup

▢ 2 cans whole peeled plum tomatoes, 28 oz each

▢ ⅓ cup fresh basil leaves

▢ 1 cup low-fat milk, non-fat or 1%

▢ ¼ teaspoon granulated garlic

▢ ¼ teaspoon salt

▢ ¼ teaspoon cracked black pepper

▢ ½ cup 1/3-less-fat cream cheese, softened, 4 ounces

Pour both cans of tomatoes with their juices into a large sauce pan, bring to a boil over medium high heat. Once it comes to a boil reduce heat to medium and simmer, uncovered for 30 minutes. Stir occasionally to make sure it isn’t burning to the bottom.

Pour tomatoes from the pan into a blender or food processor, add in the 1/3 cup of fresh basil and process until smooth.

Return the pureed tomato mixture back into the original pan; add in milk, salt, garlic and pepper. Stir until well combined. Add in cream cheese, using a whisk stir while cooking over medium heat, until cream cheese is completely melted and soup has thickened a bit, about 5 minutes cooking

time.

Remove from heat and serve soup, garnish with basil, cheese and bread if desired.

Store in an airtight container, in the fridge will last 3-5 days.

Add more seasoning if you’d like! Fresh basil is also great on top.
