TOMATO SOUP

DSC08628Soups are always liked by everyone at home.I make this tomato at least twice a month as it is easy preparing as well as very filling.As we all know know soup works as an appetizer and this one with rich red colour and strong flavour,works well on the tummy to initiate your appetite.Tomato soup is one of first soups I learnt to make and often order while eating out.Tomatoes are a rich source of the anti oxidant lycopene which is known for combating with cancer.It is because of this nutrient that it is red in colour.Now besides all these things,tomatoes are loved by all,so go ahead to the kitchen to make a fresh bowl of tomato soup and sit back and enjoy..
