I used carrots & celery for the veggies. I like more tomato than the soup provides. Wait to top w/ cheese until the end or it turns hard or try Parmesan mixed with bread crumbs to top. Layers didn't work well for me. I will mix it all. I like the change from the mushroom soup variety. Thanks. - 11/2/09
