Tomato Soup

A very simple home made tomato soup, especially if you use a hand blending stick. I made my husband try it, he said "Don't be offended if I don't like it.. I think I'll eat the whole bowl" Even my son liked it especially when sprinkled with fresh parmesean cheese. Makes 4 large servings, would be wonderful served with grilled cheese sandwiches.
