Tomato Summer Squash Soup image

This is a great recipe to use food from the summer garden. Although the recipe calls for canned tomatoes, one could add 2 cups fresh tomatoes. I used canned tomatoes with basil, oregano & garlic seasoning. I also sauteed the vegetables in olive oil instead of the broth. DH said this is great!

I followed the recipe exactly but my soup turned out watery. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I had to add a lot of salt and pepper to make it more flavorful.
