Veggie Soup with Basil Sauce

SUBMITTED BY: Emily Idlewild

"A delicious stock soup with a robust basil tomato sauce. Wonderful any time of year! This is a great soup because you can vary the vegetables according to your taste or whatever is in season. And, of course, the flavors are even better on the second and third day!"
