This is a wonderful soup! It is simple to prepare and delicious to taste! The ingredients are all readily available. I did substitute 1 can of petite diced tomatoes for the fresh ones. And I also used 2 cans of vegetable broth for the chicken broth as this is just a personal preference. I will definitely be making this soup as an addition to my permanent cookbook! Thanks Mimi for an excellent recipe!

Very nice! I like the dash of cumin.

Excellent soup! I added more tomato sauce and chicken stock than it calls for, and I ommitted the potatoes. Everyone really enjoyed it!

I used 3 cans tomato soup and 3 cans water instead of the tomato sauce. Everyone loved it!

Very busy nanny/au pair, working for a very rich and snooty family, in a very large home, in a very snooty village. Just in case my employer comes here, please don't ask where I am from, or I'll be sacked like the last nanny was. ;-) I take care of 4 gorgeous, and darling kids. 3 girls and a boy. The boy is the youngest (and my favorite). They are great children, very, very active. (Hyper) I love to cook. I guess that's a given, why else would I be here. Part of my job is also to prepare meals for the family. The more they like my food, the longer I get to stay. (just a little joke) On my day off, I usually go out to the cinema or some dance clubs with the other au pairs in this town. That's about it I think.
