This soup was fast and easy. I made it and the family thought ot was bought from a local popular steakhouse that os known for it's soup. The only deviation I made was I added some diced smoked ham. I am going to make this for my next potluck they will think I have worked all day on it. Thanks.

This soup was extremely quick and easy to make. It was a bit bland though, so we all added some "pizza spice" to our bowls and it was yummy!

I needed to make a soup in a hurry and this was the one. Very convenient. I used chicken stock instead of water and added 1 TBSP of parsley. I had to add extra salt and pepper to my soup when I ate it but I would rather do that then over salt the whole pot of soup.
