Soup Base

fresh tomatoes

green bell pepper

onion

garlic

basil

sugar (optional)

salt & pepper

Peel & core tomatoes.  Roughly chop and put in a big pot.  Add onion, bell pepper, basil, garlic, salt, pepper.  Stir and then add a little sugar to taste.  Bring to a boil and then simmer for about 20 minutes.  Cool a bit & freeze in freezer bags.  I do quart bags. 

When ready to use, set in sink until you can pour it from the bag.  Use as a soup base for just about anything you can think of. 

~I'll share some recipes of how I use this in future posts~
