Spicy Tomato Basil Soup

Ingredients:

• 1 Tablespoon flaxseed or olive oil
• 1 small yellow onion, diced
• 4 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
• 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
• 1 cup dry white wine
• 1 28 oz. can crushed tomatoes
• 2 cups vegetable broth (I used 2 teaspoons of vegetable better than bouillon and 2 cups water because I like the taste better than regular broth)
• 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
• 1 Tablespoon sriracha (or more depending on how spicy you like it)
• Salt & pepper, to taste

Instructions:

1. Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat.
2. Add onions and red pepper flakes and saute for 3 minutes until translucent.
3. Add carrots, garlic, and Italian seasoning and saute for another 5 minutes until carrots are softened.
4. Add the white wine and reduce the liquid by about a third.
5. Add tomatoes, vegetable broth, basil leaves and sriracha.
6. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes or longer.
7. Add salt & pepper to taste and serve with additional fresh basil.
