Fall turns me into a soup junkie. This season both myself and hubby are under the weather so I spend a lot of time thinking about comfort food that makes you feel warm and cozy all over. I needed fast soups as I do not feel well enough to spend all day in the kitchen. Thus this recipe was born. 30 minutes and not much standing time and dinner was served.
