We really liked this soup. Very tasty and nutritious. It's more of a tomato base if you don't drain the tomatos than the picture suggests. It's a thicker soup so you can add extra broth to thin it if you would like. I think I'll try adding basil and oregano next time for a bit more Italian flavor.

This is a really good and hearty soup. Look forward to making it again. Needs a bit more liquid so next time, will also add a can of water.

Absolutely delicious! And so easy to make! I used the Italian diced tomatoes (with oregano and basil).
