I added salt, pepper, garlic and a touch of truffle oil. It was so delicious! I will be making this again and again.

This is wonderfully delicious. I modified the recipe by using diced tomatoes with garlic and onion because that's what I had in the pantry. It's great on a cold, windy day, served with a small salad and cornbread. What a feast!

This soup is FABULOUS!!!It has the most wonderful taste. THANK YOU Susan in Montana!
