We absolutely LOVED this soup!! It was so delicious and tasted garden-fresh even with snow on the ground. It went together easily and was great with a BLT. The one thing I didn't do is drain my tomatoes - but it was still a creamy, thick consitency. We will make this again and again and again. Thanks graffeetee :)
