Love in a Cup. AKA Tomato Soup!

This isn't a very good picture all you can see is cheese but if you look very closely in the right side of the cup you can see a small bit of red.

Here is the recipe

8 cans V8 juice

1 stick (1/2 cup) butter

1/2 a large onion. Chopped to your desired size.

3 cloves of garlic. Chopped fine.

2 to 3 tablespoons dried basil

2 tablespoons of Italian seasoning (dried herbs)

1 tablespoon chopped dried chives

2 1/2 tablespoons corn starch + 1 tablespoon cold water.
Salt and pepper to taste.

Your favorite cheese. Feta is delicious!


Melt the stick of butter in a large pot. Saute the onions and garlic in the butter and add 1 tablespoon of the dried basil to the saute mixture. Than immediately after add all 8 cans of V8 juice(careful the first can will spatter). Stir the corn starch and cold water until there is no clumps. Put it to the side for a little later. Add all the herbs and the salt and pepper to the soup and let it get hot, not boiling yet. Ounce it is hot add the corn starch mixture and stir then let the soup boil for 1 minute. let settle. then put it in a cup or bowl and top with however much cheese you want! :~)
