    I added 1.5 cup vegetable broth and one can - 1.5 cups diced tomatoes and it turned out just right .

    This recipe is very vague, but I tried it with a 28 oz can of tomatoes. Other reviewers mentioned that it was watery, so I used half the suggested amount of stock. It was still extremely watery, so I added a large Yukon potato which made it taste a lot better. I also recommend adding more spices such as oregano garlic and crushed red pepper as this recipe is a bit bland.

    I'm giving this five stars because I want you to try it. It is easy, elegant and potentially delicious....BUT...it needs 1/4 tsp. of red pepper flakes to take it to FABULOUS! You will be a star if you make this one little adjustment!

    Since I wasn't sure about the tomato measurement, I used a 28 oz can of crushed tomatoes with Italian seasonings. I also added 3 cloves of garlic and the flavor turned out great! A little on the watery side, so I would use less stock, but overall an easy, cheap, and delicious soup.

    HOW MUCH TOMATO FOR THE AMOUNT OF STOCK AND OTHER INGREDIENTS? THIS WOULD CHANGE THE CONSISENCY AND TASTE A GREAT DEAL.

    I love this recipe because you can make it with whatever ingredients you have on hand. I only had stewed tomatoes and 4 cups of stock but it was still fantastic. It's so full of flavor that you won't believe there are only a few ingredients in it.

    I love this recipe. It is so easy to make. The only thing I substitute is that I buy the canned crushed tomatoes with basil, so no need for fresh basil. Then, right at the end of cooking, I add about 1/2 cup of heavy cream....yumo!
