Recipe Introduction
Soup ingredients are very flexible so you can use more or less of
any ingredient depending what you have on hand. This is great to
give to a sick friend or to have as a light supper with a salad and
some good bread. It’s best to make this the night before serving so
you can refrigerate and remove all the fat.
