Roasted Fresh Tomato Basil Soup

It’s tomato season and the tomatoes are just beginning to ripen on the vine! Soon I’ll have a plethora of tomatoes, so it’s time to roast up some fresh tomato basil soup! I roast up a huge batch of this when my summer bounty of organic heirloom tomatoes ripen. I then jar it in pint size jars and freeze them, so I can enjoy the taste of fresh tomatoes all year round!
