guilt free tomato basil soup

we had this soup tonight and it was so yummy! and healthy, too, if you care about that. john and i love tomato basil soup and this one with some whole wheat french bread and a tossed salad was such a filling and tasty dinner on a very cold night. i did make some changes to the recipe based on the reviews...

*i used canned tomatoes instead - 3 cans of fire roasted diced tomatoes, 1 can regular diced tomatoes
*i used 1 cup of V8 reduced sodium
*i used skim milk
*i used 1/2 the cream cheese it called for

as usual, my sous chef caroline helped...makes dinner prep take a little longer and many times challenging, but i love that time with my sweet girl! and she had 2 bowls of soup, too :)
