"It was a big story and yesterday’s soup. Who cares?" -Willard Scott, Weatherman
This is a quick and easy soup. It does take a bit of time to simmer - just long enough to watch Jeopardy - but it’s perfect on a cold night: warm, creamy and really filling. All of that with 5 grams of fiber and tons of vitamins.
