If you want to freeze it, just leave the basil out. Simply add it when reheating the soup.

I loved this. Used up some tomatoes that had gone soft, and courgettes from my garden. I skinned the tomatoes first. Also used slightly less than the stated amount of liquid, as we prefer a thick soup. Made double quantity to use up all my veg, and ensure plenty for lunches in the week!

This was quite nice although I would use less water next time. I added a bit of chilli as it was a little bland maybe.
