Notes

I don't understand opening a can of tomato paste and only using one tablespoon, so I usually substitute a can of V-8 for the tomato paste. I like to make a double batch of this soup and freeze it in individual size servings so I can "nuke" it for lunch. It is delicious and you can eat as much as you want because it's just veggies (and 0 points.)
