- 1 tbsp oregano dried
- 1 tbsp basil dried
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tsp salt

- In the meanwhile, make grilled cheese. Serve with hot soup. So easy, tasty and healthy!
Notes
- Store: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-5 days. Reheat on stovetop over medium heat or in microwave.
- Freeze: Place in a container with a lid and allow space for the soup to expand. Store up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and reheat.
- Low sodium tomato sauce works great in place of diced tomatoes. You can also use half sauce and half diced.
- Use an immersion blender to give it a creamy texture and consistency.
- For a cream-based soup like tomato bisque, add some plain Greek yogurt or heavy cream to your soup at the end.
- Any dried Italian herbs or seasoning is great!
- Add more garlic and fresh basil at the end if you wish. This soup is super easy and forgiving!
- For tomato vegetable stir in any cooked veggies you'd like such as zucchini, onion, carrots, celery or diced potatoes!
