Tomato basil soup is similar to a gazpacho soup, but with little extra flavoring, the natural sweetness of the tomatoes really shines through. Use the freshest and highest-quality tomatoes you can find for this recipe, otherwise, you'll be very disappointed.

This cold tomato soup recipe is low calorie, low-fat (virtually fat-free, in fact), vegetarian and vegan, but it packs a nutrient punch with plenty of vitamin C and vitamin A. Need it to be gluten-free, too? Use a homemade vegetable broth or just make sure yours is gluten-free (read the label—some are, some aren't).

2 pounds tomatoes
1 bunch fresh basil (chopped)
2 cups vegetable broth
2 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Salt (to taste)
Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
