I have used an essentially identical version of this soup for years.My Mom got it from the Pittsburgh Post Gazette. Family loves it, and it is super simple. So many people have asked for the recipe over the years. One easy modification: I use diced tomatoes instead of whole;therefore no crushing step needed.

I love to have dinner parties and cook for my guests. I could spend all day in the kitchen. I try and make my dishes from scratch only because the artificail or "ready made" foods drive me crazy.
