Submitted by mandabears

"This a delicious soup that I first tasted in Cincinatti and bought a case to bring home to PA,a little expensive. So I searched for a recipe on the Internet and found this on Cooks.com. The recipe calls for a 14 ounce bottle of ketchup, but Food.com won't let me enter it that way."
