Picture this, the temperature is dropping rapidly (30 degree drop during the day) and the wind is howling. Your central heat unit goes out and it is 60 degrees in the house. Along comes this recipe. I added about 1 tsp. of ground chipolte pepper powder. The repairman came and we all ate this wonderful warming soup!

This was a nice soup..although I was a little confused with the ingredients..in the directions it mentions to add the water, although no amount is given in the ingredients (I used enough to cover the carrots and cabbage) and then in the ingredients it mentions two 1/4 cup amounts of sugar (I only used 2 Tablespoons in total) I also added 2 tsps minced garlic and added salt and pepper. I used 1 and a half litres of tomato juice. Served with some crusty buttered bread rolls.
