Tomato Soup

                                                          Tomato Soup is the most comforting soup throughout the world and of course our home is not an exception to that fact.It is the most preferred soup when we are out for dinner.I love Tomatoes in any form so soup is always welcome especially in winter.

When we make it at home it is simple and very healthy too!You can have it with some croutons and with some dinner rolls and it makes a simple meal by itself.
