Creamy Tomato Soup – super easy tomato soup recipe you can make in the crock pot or on the stove top. Great for a quick dinner or lunch.

Soup has to be one of the most comforting dinners you can make. It doesn’t matter if it is a broth based soup like Wonton Soup or something creamy like this tomato soup. It is a must as soon as the weather has any chill in the air.

When I was growing up the only tomato soup I had was out of a can, but now that I have made my own, I am not sure I could ever go back. It is so easy, and so much better to make your own.
