This has become one of my family's favorite soups. I begged my friend for this recipe after tasting it at her home. It has a very appealing smooth taste that cannot be compared with store bought tomato soup. You may also subsitute 1-2 lbs. fresh chopped tomatoes for the canned diced tomatoes and tomato sauce.

2 garlic cloves (minced) |
1 bay leaf |
1 3/4 cups chicken broth |
1 3/4 cups skim milk |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
