Spring is sneaking up on us and I am in the garden frame of mind.  Every year we have an abundance of vegetables that are harvested from my backyard.  Of these vegetables, tomatoes (actually classified as a fruit) has a special place in my heart.  So many things can be done with them from sandwiches to sauces, to salads, to soups.  This is my absolute favorite tomato based soup ever.  Sharing this recipe has me fired up and ready to till my soil.  Bon Apetite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
