O MY!!!!! Thank so much! I made this recipe today for dinner and man alive it is amazing!!!! I can't thank you enough. It was/is the best soup ever! My husband needed something to take to work tomorrow for his office so I made it for us to have tonight and then will send the rest into the work potluck in the morning. I just know that it will be a great hit there just like it was for us here tonight. I made it just exactly as you suggested and it was absolutely delicious!
I know I will make this for many years to come. Again thank you so so much!
