Very Good!I had a chicken leftover and made stock with it. So I used the stock and leftover chicken for this delish soup. I discarded most of the bacon fat before frying the onions and peppers. I soaked the mushrooms in warm stock before slicing and adding to the soup. I pureed 1/2 the soup then added it back to the rest. Topped it with bacon and some of the red and green peppers for color!Thanks for the comfort on a cold day!
