This soup was awesome! I made it as soon as I got home tonight, and it was ready when my boyfriend got home an hour later. He had a hard day, and LOVED it! This was a great way to end a chilly Chicago day! Thanks! -
Delicious! Super easy to make, and so tasty fresh or as leftovers. Thanks for the recipe!

This was very delicious on a cool, windy and rainy day here...I followed the directions completely only I did take part of the broccoli (about 1/3 like a previous reviewer) and pureed it with my immersion blender. Oh yes, I did cut it in half and topped with slivered toasted almonds and chopped tomato. Made for Zaar Alphabet Game 2010. -
Super recipe, second time I have made it and it is fantastic. I speed the cooking time by using a grater to shred the vegetables and substitute two shredded carrots for the tomato. A quick, delicious, healthy meal. Try using raw milk if it is available in your area-it is delicious and a great source of vitamin D.
