Tomato Soup with Coconut Milk

Greetings from powder town!  We are getting some incredible snow on the mountains this season and it’s all smiles from over here.  Nothing warms you up like a bowl of soup after a full day on the slopes.  I recently tried this soup from a restaurant in town called 501 Main. I loved the flavor of the coconut milk with the tomato soup so I set on a mission to figure out a recipe and make it at home.  I think it came out pretty good!  Feel free to use the full-fat coconut milk in this recipe, because it’s a “good fat” so you don’t have to feel bad there.  I chose the tomatoes with basil because that seemed like a great flavor to pair with coconut, but regular tomatoes would work too.  Hope you enjoy!
