I enjoyed this very much when I was awash in tomatoes this summer. I skipped the yogurt, I added some marjoram, and I didn't bother straining the soup after it cooked. Instead, I used my immersion blender to puree it all, and I could leave it a bit thicker with some chunks. I'll definitely keep the recipe around for next summer.

DH didn't care for this much. I thought it was okay. It was much thinner than I expected and kind of tasted like it needed something. On the up side it was cheap and easy to make and didn't destroy my kitchen. Since it came out so much more like broth than what we think of as tomato soup, I'm thinking of using the leftovers as a base for cabbage soup instead of just reheating.

YUM! Made this tonight for my sick DH. Wonderful soup. I used tinned tomatoes, since I didn't have any good fresh ones around, and served with a fancy grilled cheese sandwich. I also didn't include the yogurt, since we didn't have any; I just poured a bit of cream into the soup and stirred it before serving. He feels great now! Thanks!

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.
