This was very good, I added some sausage to it to give it some additional flavor.

Delicious! Taking the advice of several reviews this turned out excellent. I followed the basic recipe but used 3 cans of the 14.5 oz. diced tomatos that included basil, garlic & oregano. Secondly I used 2 1/2 C of whole milk and 1 1/2 C skim milk. I also added more dried basil, oregano, celery seed and minced garlic. For that extra kick as suggested I added some ground cayenne pepper. All of the extras were not measured. That is the great thing about this recipe, it allows you to play with different seasonings according to your taste. My husband also added a bit of tabasco sauce because he likes it extra spicy. I added a bit of parmesan to my bowl. I cooked it longer than the suggested time after adding the milk portion to the recipe, the longer it cooked the thicker it got. This recipe is a keeper. Thanks!

Excellent. I used two cans of crushed tomatoes instead of cooking from scratch since I had limited time and it came out great. We did add an extra can of tomato sauce to give a stronger tomato flavor.

wow - awesome recipe! I used 4 1/2 jumbo tomatoes from garden. Also don't have a foodmill but just peeled & seeded the tomatoes & then pureed them in food processor. Really easy & super fast recipe! Instead of 1 qt of milk I did 1/2 quart of half & half and 1/2 quart of milk. Also added some celery seed which I love to use in soups. Thank you Judy!

Very good recipe! Great way to use all those tomatoes. After trying it the first time I made it again and froze the tomato mixture. The tomatoes keep coming so I'll probably make more and freeze. Thanks for the recipe!

I can't say that I followed the recipe to a "T" because I didn't have it infront of me when making the soup... but it was a great basis for my soup. I made the roux and added about a cup of beef broth (didn't have bouillon). Then I added 1 can tomato sauce, 1 can diced fire roasted tomatoes and 1 can pureed fire roasted tomatoes. I used half and half instead of milk and added worchestershire, red pepper flakes and cayenne pepper to the original recipe. Excellent easy supper with grilled ham and cheese sandwiches. My bf wants me to add italian sausage next time, so we'll see. Thank you very much!

Not the best I've had but it was very good! I used two 28 oz cans of crushed tomatoes and used half and half instead of milk. Next time I think I will use 1 can of crushed and 1 can of tomato sauce.

This bisque was fantastic! It turned out very similar to the restaurant one that made me look for the recipe. I used chicken bouilion cubes instead of beef, used 2% milk, and light butter. I also used canned diced tomatos. One can of Italian flavored, and two cans of regular. I ran one can of the regular through the food processor. This is definitely a keeper!

I don't have a food mill, and I didn't feel like going through the labor of peeling/seeding the tomatoes (especially since I was making this to use up two pints of grape tomatoes that were starting to wrinkle somewhat), so I decided to make this "rustic," skins and all. I halved the recipe, but I still used two bouillon cubes. I also used less butter and skim milk to make it healthier (and I was a big fan of being able to keep the salt low). Perhaps I'm not picky, but I really liked the way it turned out! This actually tasted like food...not some sort of scary salt with watery tomatoes concoction that you get in a can.

OMG!!!! This soup is so good I don't have a food mill so I listened to what another reviewer said and put in three small cans of diced tomatoes. My son even liked it and he is picky. Thanks for a great recipe.

Great recipe. I used three cans of diced tomatoes one contained garlic and basil. I pureed all three cans. Also added more garlic, basil, oregano and low fat 1/2 and 1/2. I also used chicken boullion cubes instead of beef. Great soup. Just the right texture. Can't wait to share this recipe with friends.

This soup is excellent. I used half and half and it was very rich. I think I'd just go with whole milk next time. I also used canned tomatoes instead of fresh ones.

I cut the milk down to 2.5 cups and used skim milk. I think I'll add more next time and see how that works. Excellent soup!

This recipe as is is lacking a lot of flavour. I used 3 lbs. of garden fresh tomatoes, all varieties, and it still had no tomato flavour. I ended up having to add a large can of crushed tomatoes, garlic, onion powder, tons of basil and italian spice, and even allspice just to give it some oomph! Sadly, I hate to rate it low, as I LOVE tomato bisque, but at least I have a base for my own version!! Thanks!

Followed the instructions to the Letter. My family wasn't a huge fan of this. I thought it was a little on the bland side. Will not make again.

AMAZING! I had so many tomatoes left this fall that I really wanted to try and use them up. This is the perfect way to do it. I'm not sure how the taste of canned tomatoes compares, but it does take a bit of extra work to use fresh. I'll assure you if you do the work, you can't go wrong with this soup!
