This easy, "quick to fix" soup is a favorite of mine YEAR 'ROUND... great with fresh summer basil from your herb garden or in winter, I use dried basil which works just as well. This soup can be made "vegetarian" if you use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth, and by all means, use home made broth instead of canned, if you have it. So easy and SO GOOD !!!
