Tomato Basil Bliss—Elevated the Southern Way

Our Mississippi Delta Tomato Basil Soup is making its grand return—now with even more flavor, depth, and Southern charm. Each spoonful shines with the brightness of vine-ripened tomatoes, the uplifting aroma of fresh basil, and the mellow sweetness of bell pepper, butternut squash, and carrots. The addition of tender rice gives it a comforting, velvety body that makes every bite feel like a warm hug.

Rooted in the timeless tradition of homemade Southern tomato soup, this refreshed recipe offers a fuller, richer, more memorable taste experience. It’s lush, cozy, and irresistibly smooth—exactly the kind of soup you crave on a chilly day.

Just stir in chicken or vegetable broth, silky tomato purée, a sprinkle of brown sugar, and a splash of cream, and you’ll have a bowl that tastes lovingly slow-cooked… yet is ready in about 35 minutes.

Cooking directions

• In a 3 or 4-quart non-aluminum pot bring broth to a boil. Reduce heat and stir in the vegetable seasoning packet from soup mix. - Aluminum reacts with the acid in tomatoes and may cause a metallic taste.
• Return to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes.
• Add the tomato puree and brown sugar, stir and return to a gentle simmer, covered for 10 minutes.
• Reduce heat and slowly stir in the cream. Cook uncovered at low heat for another 5 minutes. Serve with a crusty bread and enjoy.
• Makes about 10 servings.
