Hello Sarah! Your soup looks fantastic! I want to thank you for how you stated the tomatoes in the recipe. You included the juice in the instructions. I run across many, many recipes where things like that aren’t specified. It makes it difficult to try and guess what the author of the recipe means. I’ll be making this recipe for sure. Thanks for posting.
