  1. This continues to be a favorite in this house. NO ONE ever says, "no, don't fix that today"! Everyone love this soup.
     
  2. this was more of a stew than a soup, very thick even though i only used 1 cup of rice and had to add 3 extra cups of beef stock. my meatball loving dd enjoyed it for dinner.
     
  3. OUTSTANDING soup Caroline! all of my favorite ingredients (including meatballs LOL!) I made this soup tonight and the only change I made was I added in about 2 tablespoons chopped fresh garlic and sauteed with the onion, and sprinkled Parmesan on top, what a super tasting soup! Caroline thank you for this wonderful recipe, DH and myself enjoyed it very much with homemade rolls!

<p><br />I love to cook, read and try new recipes. Marketing professional by education and business experience, but wrote cooking feature articles and a recipe column in the past--when my 2 sons were young. Also, owned a book shop for 5 years; carried lots of cookbooks; and, of course-- had to have one of each. LOL! Invited cookbook authors to signing events and would make some of their recipes for customers to sample. <br /><br />My philosphy is-- <br /><br />LIFE IS NOT A JOURNEY TO THE GRAVE WITH THE INTENTION OF ARRIVING SAFELY IN A PRETTY AND WELL-PRESERVED BODY, BUT RATHER TO SKID IN BROADSIDE, THOROUGHLY USED UP, TOTALLY WORN OUT, AND LOUDLY PROCLAIMING, WOW! WHAT A RIDE! <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/purplechefhat.gif alt= /> <img
