GRANDMA'S TOMATO SOUP

Grandma's Tomato Soup image

This recipe is my grandmother's. Originally, Gram even made the tomato juice in it from scratch! Gram had this soup cooking on the stove every time I visited her. She enjoyed making this tomato soup and other favorite dishes for family and friends, and she made everything with love. -Gerri Sysun, Narragansett, Rhode Island
