TASTE LIKE FRESH PICKED TOMATOES WITH CREAM SERVES 8 Creamy, sweet tomato taste, delicious with a kiss of basil. I love jazzing up soup mixes while still using everyday ingredients. This classic tomato soup is all jazzed with a little Italian spices. Elevate with Fire Roasted Tomatoes (Blend first). Easy to make and pairs nicely with a grilled cheese sandwich.
