Mercy Me! I've been sick with severe bronchitus/chest cold/allergies and my best friend sent some of this home with me she had frozen. SOOOOOOO GOOD! I'm now going to make my own batch and freeze!!!! I do agree that 1 pepper is enough. Two would send anybody over the edge if they aren't used to spicy stuff.<br /><br />This is a MUST TRY recipe! I'm sold on this being the only tomato soup I will ever eat again!!!!! Thanks Guy!!!!!
