Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time10 minutes
Servings - 4 servings

Ingredients 

  • 2 11 oz. cans creamy tomato soup or 1 quart tomato soup
  • 2 Tbsp pine nuts
  • 2 Tbsp Parmesan cheese
  • 10 leaves fresh basil
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Bread, as side dish

Instructions

  • Pour the tomato soup into serving bowls. (You can warm it up if you like, but I prefer to eat this cold in the summer months.)
  • In a food processor or blender, add the pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, fresh basil, garlic cloves and 2 to 3 Tbsp olive oil. (I prefer a 'thicker' pesto for this, but you can add more olive oil to thin it out.)
  • Once the pesto is prepared, add a dollop or two to each serving bowl.
  • Warm bread.
  • Serve Creamy Tomato Soup with Homemade Pesto and side of bread.
