Cheese Whiz Cream of Tomato Soup image

If you are a garlic lover, you might want to consider adding in about 1-2 tablespoons (or to taste) fresh chopped garlic to the tomato mixture. If possible, try to purchase only the spicy Clamato juice for this. The tomato mixture can be made even a day ahead (in fact it is even better if prepared ahead of time) pureed and left in the refrigerator until ready to use, just heat in the microwave before adding to the flour mixture. This is one of the best recipes for homemade tomato soup, so I really advise to double the recipe, you won't be able to stop eating this, it is that good! Serve with crusty bread rolls.
