Leah's Lemon Soup (A

"This is my favorite soup in the whole wide world. I have tried lots of recipes and have liked some, and have been disappointed by many. I like a lot of rice in my soup, it makes it nice and thick. So, to take the guesswork out, I created my own! I am a purist when it comes to this soup... no frills, and just a little spiciness! I make so much of it my hubby jokes that one day I will turn into a pot of lemon soup!"

  1. WHAT AN UNUSUAL, YET TASTY SOUP! I shared it with some neighbors & they were as surprised as we were at the wonderful flavor! Most definitely something I want to make again, & some time it'll be made for company to enjoy! Thanks for a great keeper!

<p>chef, fashion designer, hockey fanatic. Avid reader, knitter, and pet owner. I like to travel, go new places, and met new people. One thing I can't understand is picky eaters... My parents never raised me to be a picky eater.. How do you know if you don't like it if you never ate it?? Just because it looks different and smells different doesn't mean it's not tasty. Life is all about experiences... and you can't experience anything if you are unwilling to try new things. <br /> <br />and on the whole pizza wars.. Chicago style deep dish (it's stuffed!) <br /> <br />And... they need to bring a Waffle House to the Upper Midwest! <br /> <br /></p>
