  Remove from stove let cool slightly and puree the contents....serve with croutons or a dollop of cream...the soup freezes very well. I freeze in containers of one or two servings and when frozen I put them in baggies to give me more room in the freezer...my daughter calls me Mrs Kitchen since I stopped driving and am home unless a friend or neighbor calls and away I go..otherwise I am in the kitchen and what else is there to do but cook, bake, knit and play scrabble on the computer..
