"Great recipe for when you've made a trip to the farmers market or have a bumper crop of home-grown tomatoes! I sub silken-tofu for the cream for added protein."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic; cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until softened. Add the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.

Step 2

Remove from the heat. Stir in 2 1/2 pounds chopped tomatoes, stock, salt, pepper, and 1/2 cup basil.

Step 3

Transfer half of the tomato mixture to a blender. Process 1 minute or until smooth. Pour the pureed tomato mixture into a bowl. Transfer the remaining tomato mixture to the blender and process 1 minute or until smooth. With the blender running, add 1/4 cup oil in a slow, steady stream, processing until smooth.

Step 4

Add the drained tofu to the tomato mixture in the blender. Process until smooth.

Step 5

Return the pureed tomato mixture and pureed tomato tofu mixture to the pan; bring to a simmer, and cook, stirring often, until heated through.

Step 6

Combine the heirloom tomatoes, corn, vinegar and remaining 1/2 cup basil in a bowl.

Step 7

Divide the soup evenly among 8 bowls. Top with the corn mixture; drizzle the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil evenly over the top.
