Tips:

• For a richer soup, use a combination of different types of tomatoes, such as diced tomatoes, crushed tomatoes, and whole tomatoes.
• You can also add other vegetables to the soup, such as carrots, celery, or bell peppers.
• If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs instead.
• Serve with a side of crusty bread or a slice of crusty bread.

Variations:

• Spicy soup: Add 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the soup.
• Creamy soup: Add 1/2 cup of heavy cream or milk to the soup after it has simmered for 5 minutes.
• Roasted vegetable soup: Add 1 tablespoon of chopped and roasted vegetables, such as carrots, celery, or onions, to the soup.
