Tonight was one of those nights where I would have been content to eat a bowl of cereal, or snack on goldfish and ice cream instead of make something for dinner. But then I got to thinking of all the seemingly random ingredients I have collected over the last few weeks that really need to be eaten. I didn't want to make anything complicated - Carter ate dinner when he woke up from his nap at 4pm (he went to sleep without eating lunch today) and Matt was already in bed getting his nap on before work.
I had 4 ounces of Gorgonzola cheese, fresh basil from my garden, and a ridiculous number of canned diced tomatoes in the pantry. I was either going to make some kind of strange sauce for pasta, or make a soup. And even though it's 95 degrees outside, I opted for the soup figuring it would be lighter than any pasta dish I made.
