  4. Pour in the chicken broth and canned diced tomatoes. Stir and bring to a gentle simmer.
  5. Add the cream of mushroom soup, stirring until fully combined.
  6. Mix in the tomato paste, sun-dried tomatoes, Italian seasoning, and bay leaf. Let it simmer for about 15 minutes.
  7. Stir in the softened cream cheese until combined. Adjust the consistency with more broth if needed.
  8. Sprinkle in the Parmesan cheese and stir until melted.
  9. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary before serving.
