Submitted by Aric Ross

"This recipe has been handed down to me by my mother. While I'm not sure of the background or origins of the recipe, it is a great meal for those rainy, cold, and dreary days. My favorite side dish is a nice glass of milk and some saltines to go along with it."

This was an excellent recipe! It was my first time making soup, and it turned out well. The only thing was that it was a little too salty. Next time, I wont add the teaspoon of salt. Thanks!
