Creamy Tomato Dill Soup



Another great cold weather soup- classic tomato soup.
This one uses a 32 oz jar of yellow and red tomatoes--canned in the peak of summer freshness, and opened on a gloomy snowy December Sunday for the perfect hot lunch!

Use 1-2 tbsp tomato paste to thicken and sweeten. (1 tsp sugar if you prefer your soup slightly sweet)
Salt, freshly ground pepper and dill (or basil or chervil or tarragon- your preference)
Let the tomatoes simmer for a while, until bubbling and thickened. Add 1/2 container low fat ricotta cheese and blend with immersion blender until desired consistency.
Stir and simmer for about 10-15 minutes. Enjoy with a grilled cheese- classic!
