Tomato Basil Bisque? Really? It's 104 degrees out there! It just sounded good...
Cashews replace the cream in this recipe. It is still rich, but there is NO cholesterol in this recipe so it is very heart healthy!

1 cup raw cashews
1 cup water
3 large tomatoes, coarsely chopped
1/2 coarsely chopped onion
1 large carrot, peeled and sliced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 cup chopped basil
1 cup vegetable broth
2 tbsps. balsamic vinaigrette
Salt/Pepper to taste
Directions:
Boil cashews until water is almost gone. Sauté tomatoes, onion, garlic, carrots, balsamic dressing on stovetop for 15 minutes. Add boiled cashews, then puree in food processor or super blender with 1 cup vegetable broth. Season with salt and pepper, garnish with basil.
Super blenders such as Blendtec or Vitamix are optimal for pureed soup recipes.
