Yummy and very easy! I was looking for something to do with all these cheap fresh tomatoes I had, and tried this recipe. I roasted the tomatoes in the oven at the same time as the garlic, then peeled and chopped them into the soup. Have made lots of it and frozen it for future use. It is very tasty and I am going to try it chilled as well as hot, depending on the season. Thank you for sharing this lovely recipe!! Tricia in Oz

Me and my boyfriend have been together for 11 years now. We live on 40 acres and have 6 dogs and 4 Tennessee Walkers. We both work a lot of hours so there is never enough time in a day to get everything done. I absolutely love the outdoors. I also enjoy lifting weights, reading and playing with all of my beautiful animals. I absolutely love, love and love to cook. I like to cook a variety of things and also like love to bake. I like to just get in the kitchen and experiment with different things. If something does not turn out for me such as pie crust or gravy I will keep trying until I can make it work. Only problem is, when I finally make it work it may not work again the time after that. It is fun though and I do consider myself a pretty good cook for the most part. I also love slow cooker recipes. Those are my most favorite in the winter months.
