Fabulous soup! I changed a few small things: Added only 1 lb onion, 1 cup chicken broth and one cup water, 2 cups fat free half and half. I seasoned with 1 tsp salt and 2 tsp ground ginger. It was marvelous. Wouldn't have thought to combine apples and tomato soup. . .Thanks for sharing!!

My name is Ami and I share my home with my husband, Carey, our two small sons, James and Charles and our daughters Meradydd (it's pronounced Meradith)and Kathrynn. Until recently, I was a Specialist in the National Guard. I'm pretty eclectic in my studies and I've learned a lot becuase of that since I don't limit myself. Right now I'm taking classes for animal care. I've also been studying a lot about herbalism and really enjoy learning about that. My mother and I also run a home based business for natural soap, balms, etc. We use only the most the natural ingredients available. I'm also a Mary Kay consultant. Busy, huh? :D I love to read and learn new things. My husband says our books will be the death of us. LOL. I love to cook and experiment. I also like to take walks, rain or not.
