Since we were eating this soup with grilled cheese sandwiches, I didn't add any cheese to the soup. I can see why this soup was popular with kids - there aren't any "weird" chunks of veggies in there - just the pasta and the tomato soup. I should have added a wee bit more water because it thickened quite a bit after I turned off the heat. All in all I think I used about 3 1/2 cups. I started with 2 cups of water, then added 1/2 cup at a time until I reached the consitency I wanted (which was pretty thick - I like thick tomato soup). My only issue is the lack of measurements in the recipe - I omitted the salt (because of the bouillon and the salt mixes), used 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, onion salt, and garlic salt. I made the soup while my husband fixed up some grilled cheese sandwiches - perfect Sunday lunch. This is a fantastic soup - reminds me of eating tomato soup as a kid on a cold day (it is snowing outside).
