Tomato Basil Soup (like La Madeleine)

It's a great cold day for a hearty tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwich.  Here is our favorite, like La Madeleine but a lower fat version and its super easy.

Serves 6- Prep 5 min. Cook 15 min
1 28 oz can diced tomatos
2 cups tomato juice or V8
2 cups chicken stock
6 fresh basil leaves or 1 T dried
1cup fat free half and half
2 T butter

Mix together tomatos, juice, stock and basil.  Bring to a boil, simmer 15 min. Use hand blender,to purée.  Add half and half and butter.  Salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!
