Simple Tomato and Corn Soup

I've been craving soup the past couple months since it's been so cold and love trying new soups.  So when I found this recipe for Tomato and Corn Soup it looked yummy & easy, so I tried it!

Ingredients:

1 (10 oz) can diced tomatoes, if you use salt-free then add salt to taste
1 (10 oz) can creamed corn
1 cup skim or low fat milk
1/2 medium onion, minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tablespoons olive oil
about 3-4 green onion stalks, chopped
additional salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
  1. Heat medium pot, add olive oil. Once oil is hot, add onion and garlic and cook until transluscent.
  2. Add canned tomatoes. Cook for about 3 minutes until combined well with onion/garlic mixture.
  3. Add canned creamed corn and milk. Stir to combine evenly, then slowly bring to boil.
  4. Reduce heat, add green onions and salt/pepper to taste.
  5. Cook for about 5 minutes until soup is combined well.
  6. Serve warm with your favorite bread or crackers.

I could not find green onion stalks, so I omitted those.  It was definitely easy to fix and was good, but slightly bland.  It definitely needed some more spices.

And here is how mine turned out:
