Creole Tomato Soup (Low Fat)
Description
I truly hate the tomato soup that you get in cans and have as far back as I can remember. I had red bell pepper so that is what I used in this recipe even though it ask for green. The chunks of tomato, pepper and onion with the fragrant and flavorful herbs make an outstanding soup. At last, a tomato soup that actually tastes Great!

You spoke of adding broth in step 2 but it is not listed in the
ingredients for the recipe. Please correct as it would make a
difference in the consistancy and flavoring, especially if a
whole can is to be used in Total between steps 2 & 3. Thank You!!!!
