I made this soup yesterday using basil right out of my garden - kept having to add more and more since I didn't measure well. And I used dried parsley and no cheese. The bread was only partially stale - with some soft pieces. This is a wonderful soup if you chop the bread small enough. My wife said they were like dumplings - will dice smaller next time. And I will be using this for our Soup Kitchen for the needy with sausage or other meat. Thank you so much for the recipe.

I love this soup as a base. You can create many more flavorful soups out of it. I, personally, do not like mushy bread so I omit the bread in the soup. Instead, I get a nice loaf of italian or french bread and slice it up, put butter and parmesan cheese on it and toast it. I use beef broth in place of the chicken broth and I also add two cans of fire roaasted tomatoes. I cook some elbow pasta and add that to my soup. I then top it all off in the bowl with the parmesan cheese and serve it with the toasted bread.

Really tasty and easy to make. I added more parsley (because I had it), and a little less stock (thicker seemed better).

My best friend and I had tomato bread soup when we were traveling in Florence, Italy, and it was amazing. We've been looking for a way to recreate it ever since. This recipe comes pretty close. I don't think the bread I used was stale enough, as the consistency was a little too soggy for me. My boyfriend, however, loved it! Will definitely be making this one again!

I wasn't too sure about this, but I had some baguettes I made that I wasn't pleased with, so I figured what the heck. It sounded good, just worried about me not liking the sogginess of the bread. Well, I don't mind it at all! Very tomato-y, and it could probably benefit from longer simmering, but very yummy. I used dried herbs because I was too impatient to wait until I went to the store. Thanks for the recipe!
