2 cans (14.5 ounce) Hunt's Diced Tomatoes in Roasted Garlic flavor or regular diced tomatoes
2 cans (14.5 ounce) Ro*TEL Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
½ teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup milk any kind

In a medium pot, combine the Hunt's Diced Tomatoes, Ro*TEL Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies, garlic, chicken broth, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring mixture to a boil and then let simmer for about 10 minutes.
Remove mixture from heat. Using an immersion blender, blend soup until creamy and no large chunks remain. Alternatively, you can use a regular blender and then return mixture to pot.
Add in butter and milk and stir to combine. Warm over low heat, if needed. Serve immediately.
