Very bland
Way too watery and very bland. Had to add more tomatoes and a half of onion. Sprinkled some parmesan cheese also.

Needs improvement
I agree, it’s very watery. I did put 3 cloves of garlic in, so it had a garlicky punch. But this recipe definitely needs tweaking. Also I didn’t achieve the colour of the soup that’s in the picture! Definitely been photoshopped!

Good base recipe easily adapted
This recipe was incredibly easy to make. One of my first recipes. I had to adapt to accommodate the limited ingredients on hand. Used diced roasted tomatoes, fresh Roma, tomato paste, granulated garlic, fresh basil. Added salt and pepper to taste. Family enjoyed!

Bland
Did not care for it at all. Little flavor. Cooled it before pureeing.
