Soup and bread Saturday

Ok it is just downright cold here so last night we had some homemade soup that was soooooooooo yummy!! My mom and I used to make a big ol pot of this and have it for a couple of days.
HOMEMADE CHUNKY TOMATO SOUP
I start out with 2 quarts of my own stewed tomatos, can used canned if you dont have any. I like to add 1 tablespoon of dried parsley, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tablespoon sea salt, 1 tsp dried basil leaves. Now take 2 cans of campbells tom soup empty in lg stock pot, add 3 cans of milk, (use your soup cans to measure) 1 large onion chopped, 1 cup chopped parsley, and a pinch of pepper. Now add in 1 bag of your favorite wide noodles and i like to add a couple of tablespoons butter, now just simmer til noodles are ready and soup has thickened. I forgot to take a pic but i am sure will make this again for my lunches at work this winter.
**ENJOY***

That recipe sounds like a real keeper! I bet the butter you add in makes it very rich and satisfying!
