1/2 cup cashew pieces
6 large ripe tomatoes
1/2 cup basil leaves
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 cups short grain brown rice
2 teaspoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
1 cup vanilla rice milk
1 tablespoon minced fresh dill ( or 1 teaspoon dry )

Preheat oven to 350. spread cashews on baking sheet and bake 10 minutes or until just golden. meanwhile cut tomatoes into small chunks
reserving as much of the juice as possible. place tomato and juice into medium saucepan. roughly chop half of the basil and add to the pan. bring mixture to a simmer over medium heat. add cashews, tomato paste, 1 1/2 cups of the rice, soy sauce, vinegar, milk, and dill.
cover and simmer 15 minutes.

transfer the soup to a blender in patches, and puree til smooth. return soup to the pan and add remaining rice and basil. simmer another 3 minutes over medium heat. season with salt and pepper. garnish with fresh parsley or additional basil. if desired.
