TOMATO SOUP FOR THE SOUL :
The ease of this recipe beguiles the flavor of the dish; it’s beauty lies in the elegant simplicity of a long roast!

I didn't know how many people stood with me on that until I saw how popular this post from my last weekend was on my Instagram! Thank you for telling me what you love and that it something I made.
