5 stars all the way!! This soup is just fantastic!! Definitely comfort food!! The day I made it, I was not feeling good and wanted soup. This soup really made me feel better. It was easy to make I only pureed' one can of artichoke hearts. With the other can, I cut the artichoke hearts into smaller pieces and added them to the soup. I like having something to chew in soup that I make. I will definitely be making this soup again. Thanks for such a great recipe. Good luck in the contest.
