This was really good. I used fresh tomatoes. It seemed like something was missing though. I added more spice and some cayenne but I never figured out what was missing. I would make this again though especially on a cold winter day. Overall it was really good

This was a nice hearty soup. Easy to put together. Next time I think we'll use broth for some of the water in order to give it a little more flavor.

This made an excellent soup, Tish. I also used fresh tomatoes instead of canned. A nice blend of spices and textures. Husband and I took this to work for lunch. Very filling, hearty, flavorful, and best of all, healthy. Thanks for sharing it.
