A healthy, heart and soul warming soup, bursting with flavor and textures. You won’t want to put down the spoon after you take a bite. Currently me, as I sit here writing and eating, taking bites in between typing. Bite, type, bite, bite, bite, type. You get the gist. Oh and did I also mention that this goes perfectly with a nice glass of vino?!
