ITALIAN TOMATO SOUP A LA MAMA

Italian Tomato Soup a La Mama image

An Italian tomato soup with great flavour and the pasta makes it a hearty meal, delicious and real comfort food!! Serve with chunks of garlic & mozzarella bread - I always make double if the family is home! NB I add garlic, and I dont always puree it, its just as nice left as a broth.
