This very satisfying soup is so easy to prepare & well worth the small effort that's involved! The recipe, as written, makes a large amount of soup, so I only made about 1/4 of what was called for! However, it is good enough to serve to company, so when the time presents itself, I'll be making this recipe again! Thanks for sharing!
