Creamy Tomato Basil
Soup
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup all-purpose flour

- Heat a large, heavy-bottomed pot over

chicken broth, tomatoes, basil, sugar, salt, dill weed and pepper.
Stir until well blended. Bring to a boil and simmer, uncovered,
for 25 minutes.
