Oh my goodness, this gets 10 stars, it's just that good!!! I really don't know what to say, I loved everything about this soup. I guess if a person wanted to, you could use an immersion blender to puree the onions more. I think one thing I will try, is to use my canned tomato juice from last year to make this. I'll have to cook the juice down more but it will be fun to see how it will turn out. I can't wait to make this again. *YUM* Made for *August Recipe Challenge Green Beans and Basil 2009* gameReply
