About

I think this recipe is from "The Family Chef" by Jewels and Jill Elmore, I discovered it in a magazine.

I made this soup with organic vegetable broth and because I had baby spinach in the refrigerator, I added it to the soup 5 minutes before the end of the cooking time. It was delicious. I also felt it needed to be seasoned with salt and pepper before serving.
