I don’t know about you but all this #Socialdistancing has me going a little crazy. As such, I’ve been sitting back doing the only thing that keeps me sane… COOKING and falling back in love with some old favorites.

So the other day, I was hungry and BORED, so I decided to whip up a batch of TOMATO BASIL SOUP in my ninja cold and hot blender and paired it with a grilled cheese and ham sandwich.. boy of boy .. it was freaking amazing!

• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• salt & pepper to taste
• 1 can (28 ounces) whole peeled tomatoes
• 1 cup chicken broth

• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper (more if you like spicy)

2. Select the SAUTÉ function.
