Really great soup! I cut the recipe in half since I don't have a lot of mouths to feed. It made the perfect amount for supper tonight and leftovers for lunch tomorrow. I think next time I make this I would still cut the recipe in half for the liquids, but put in the full amounts of veggies. I like thick chunky soups. The flavor was great and it was easy to throw together once I had all the veggies chopped. I have some leftover cooked brown rice in the fridge that I might mix in with it for tomorrows leftovers. A really versatile soup that I'm sure I'll be making again! Thanks for posting! Made for Newest Zaar Tag.
