Homemade Tomato-Basil Soup with Cheese Toasts image

I really love the Tomato Basil soup from La Madeleine but it has a lot of butter and cream in it and this sounded like a healthier alternative. I got the recipe from the grocery store where I shop.

I didn't like this soup. It's too bland and the texture is weird. The cheese toasts are also not very good. I would not recommend this recipe.

This soup is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either. The flavor is a bit bland. The cheese toasts are good, but they don't save the soup.
