Creamy Tomato Soup


Are you looking for an easy soup recipe?  Look no further. This soup is truly one of the easiest soup to make.

It is one of my daughter's favourite soups! She likes it with spaetzels (noodles), but sometimes, when I didn't have the time to make the noodles, we just ate it with soup crackers. Works well and still delicious.
