Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, and sliced cucumber. In a separate bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle over the salad and toss to coat.

  2. 2

    Make the Creamy Tomato Soup

    In a large pot, sauté chopped onion and minced garlic until fragrant. Add diced tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Stir in heavy cream and basil, and cook for an additional 10 minutes. Use an immersion blender for a smooth texture, if desired.
