We really enjoyed this soup. It's delicious and pleasing to the eye, very colorful! Next time I make it I am going to use a can of Rotel tomatoes instead of a fresh tomato to add some kick to it!

This was the BEST soup that I have ever had! I've cooked a different soup each week for the last 3 months or so, and by far, this was the most delicious! As I am a vegetarian, I substituted the Chicken broth for Vegetable Broth. Mmmm Mmmm good!
