"My husband and I have never been fond of tomato soup, but we think this one is out of this world," says Chris Nelson from Alliance, Ohio. "Since a friend gave me the recipe a while back, I've made a batch every week. It's good as an appetizer or paired with a sandwich or salad at lunchtime."

This mushroom tomato basil soup was a hit with my family! It was creamy, flavorful, and packed with vegetables. I especially loved the addition of fresh basil, which gave the soup a bright, herbaceous flavor.
