Cream of Tomato-Vegetable Soup

This Cream of Tomato-Vegetable Soup is made with vegetables and herbs sautéed in butter and then mixed with heavy cream. I use Beefsteak tomatoes, crushed canned tomatoes, tomato juice and tomato paste to produce the deep and rich flavor of this Cream of Tomato-Vegetable Soup . It is definitely a decadent guilty pleasure.

Note: You can use half and half instead of the heavy cream if you prefer.
