Tomato Basil Soup 

Tomato Basil Soup along with a side of grilled cheese or fresh bread is one of my favorite fall day meals! It’s so easy to make and you can easily store in the freezer for another cold fall day. The Kelapo ghee gives the soup so much flavor that only a few spices are required. I hope this soup keeps you happy and warm this fall!
