Shrek Soup image

I made up this soup and named it after Shrek because it's chunky, has lots of green and is a little sweet and spicy! Please try to use the fire-roasted tomatoes and fresh spinach, they give such great flavor. They carry the Muir Glen brand at Whole Foods and Wal-Mart Supercenter. I hope you enjoy it!
