I'm allergic to tomatoes, so I can't eat this soup. :(

This soup is delicious, but it's a little too time-consuming for me to make on a weeknight. I think I'll save it for a weekend project.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out too watery. I think I'll reduce the amount of broth next time.

This soup is a bit too tangy for my taste. I think I'll add a little sugar next time.

I'm not a fan of basil, so I omitted it from the recipe. The soup was still delicious!

This soup is a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. I had a few tomatoes that were starting to go bad, so I decided to make this soup. It turned out so well, and I'm glad I didn't let the tomatoes go to waste.

I loved the simplicity of this recipe. I didn't have any fresh basil on hand, so I used dried basil instead. It still turned out great!

I'm not a huge fan of tomato soup, but this recipe changed my mind. The basil adds a really nice flavor that makes the soup more complex and interesting.

This is my go-to tomato basil soup recipe. It's so easy to make and always turns out great. I love that I can use fresh or canned tomatoes, depending on what I have on hand.
