    Very good, I always add extra garlic to everything, I served this with home made croutons. Thanks for posting! - 3/3/18

    This soup is delicious! My extremely picky sister loved it (of course I had to puree it so she couldn't pick out the basil or onions). I used some other kind of tomatoes and a sweet onion. Really good with a couple of croutons and a little asiago cheese sprinkled on top :) - 3/14/10

    My whole family loved this soup. I made it with the intention of taking it to work for lunch, but my family like it so much that I only had one day of leftovers from it. Next time I will make a double batch. - 1/15/09
