heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Sauté onions in butter and olive oil until soft and translucent, about 10 minutes

Add garlic and basil, along with a pinch of cinnamon, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper; stir and cook for another minute

Add chicken stock and canned tomatoes; no need to smush them up as they will be blended later

Add 2 tablespoons of uncooked rice and stir well

Bring the mixture to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking

After 20-25 minutes, add a little bit of baking soda to cut down on canned flavor; it will fizz and bubble, which is normal

Blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender or a regular blender

Top the soup with cracked pepper and extra basil before serving
