The flavor of this is good but the somewhat chunky texture was more like a salsa than a soup. I really think a portion of this needs to be pureed. I used roma tomatoes & I used spicy bloody mary mix instead of the tomato juice so I omitted the hot sauce. I used a lite flavored olive oil to avoid a heavy, oily feeling. I didn't have celery so I used celery salt in place of the regular salt & I used fresh parsley & basil instead of dried.I served this w/ spaghetti squash w/ butter, parmesan & bacon bits & Diana's suggestion of the french bread w/ infused oil sounded so good that I went w/ that as well. Thansk for the recipe...it was refreshing.
