Tomato, Zucchini, and Shrimp Bisque
This dish has such a heady aroma of basil andscallions that you’d never know it starts with canned soup. Fresh herbs make a significantimprovement in the color and flavor of this soup, so I don’t recommend usingdried basil as an alternative. Add bread sticks and a glass of wine for afeast.
