For my sister who loves soup on a cold winter day as much as I do:

Tomato Bisque
5 cloves of garlic- chopped
1 large shallot- chopped
1/4 stick of butter
3 large cans of diced tomatoes
1 quart tomato juice
1 quart of heavy whipping cream
3 tbs honey
1 small bunch of fresh basil
salt and pepper to taste

melt butter, add garlic and shallots. add diced tomatoes and juice- simmer for about 10 minutes. add cream and honey. simmer another 10-15 minutes. add basil. Puree in batches returning to pot. add salt and pepper to taste.

YUMMY!
