Great soup, PWKid! My stepson doesn't like tomato soup but I coerced him into trying a bowl. He said the cream in the recipe was great! He ate a bowl then he made himself another bowl for a snack a few hours later! I was stunned stupid. Thanks for the recipe. He's 14 and wants a girlfriend. If you are interested... -
Wonderfully simple, but full of flavor soup. I love it, I enjoyed with shredded parmesan and some croutons. I added oregano. It reminded me of Panera's cream of tomato soup. Next time I will try it with asiago cheese. Thanks for posting this recipe. -
A nice tomato soup! I used garlic and onion flavored diced tomatoes which provided much needed flavor, as I felt this soup was a bit mild (even with my flavored tomatoes). I added 2T of parmesan cheese at the end and that did the trick for me. Also of note, I used half and half in place of cream without compromising the creamy texture. Thanks! Made for MAKE MY RECIPE. -
This soup was too easy to taste so good! Really nice fresh tomato flavour. We had this for an easy lunch on a cold day. A great quick soup. Thanks for sharing your recipe. Photo also being posted
