This tomato bisque is delicious! I made it for my family, and they loved it. The cream makes it so rich!
I don’t know, it tasted kinda bland. I expected more from a recipe with so many ingredients. Maybe I missed something?
OMG! So easy and so good! Like a hug in a bowl! Definitely making this again!
I totally agree! This soup is just wonderful. It warms the soul! 🔥❤️
Yum! Added some red pepper flakes for a kick and it was lit.
Not a fan, tasted kinda bland. I’ll stick to the canned stuff.
Tomato bisque? Never heard of it. Is this a fancy term for tomato soup?
Yes, it’s like a fancy tomato soup with cream added! Gives it a richer flavor. You should try it!
This was too easy! I liked the taste, but my family didn’t really care for it. 🤷♂️
Yum!
I used canned tomatoes. Still came out great! No immersion blender tho.
It was good but I think it need more salt! Everyone has different taste I guess.
5 stars all the way! I’m definitely making this again. Best tomato bisque ever!
I agree! This bisque is so creamy and delicious. You really nailed the flavors!
Not sure what the fuss is about. It was just okay for me. I’ve had better tomato soups.
Tomato soup is tomato soup. Is this really that special?
I added more garlic than called for and it was too strong. Be mindful of the garlic!
Absolutely delicious! I added some croutons on top and it was perfect. 😋
Wayyy too much cream. Next time I’ll cut it in half!
Easy to make and cheap too! I love this recipe so much!
I feel like the sugar is unnecessary. It’s a savory soup! Just stick to the basics.
This bisque is so creamy and delicious! Perfect for a cold day.
Totally agree! This bisque warms my soul on chilly nights. 🍲
I forgot the basil and it was still good. Making it again soon!
I dunno how it could be as good without basil. It’s like making pizza without cheese! 🤔 But glad you liked it.
Glad it turned out well without the basil! It’s great to experiment. Can’t wait to hear how it goes next time with it!
Not the best. I think it’s too creamy. Prefer more tomato flavor.
I thought tomato soup was just for kids, but this recipe blew my mind!
