I will preface this recipe by saying I never liked tomato soup probably because the only thing I ever saw was a can of tomato soup (Campbell’s). Mike loves grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup. When I finally decided that I really like tomatoes, I figured that it was time to make my own. I used a couple of recipes but found my little shortcuts worked just fine. I don’t salt things as much as the various cookbooks so you can add more than I do. I love this tomato soup and so has everyone else that has tried it so I hope you will enjoy it.
