A yummy, warm, hearty soup. filled with hearty ingredients, such as carrots, spinach, celery, and classic tomato sauce. Just perfect for a rainy day, such as today, here in Alabama. Yes, it does rain in Alabama. It’s still warm outside with humidity, but I already had the soup in mind. You won’t find this recipe anywhere else. I usually try and add unusual things that I like into my soups to make them stand out. The rice in this recipe helps you feel fuller and is very tasty. Husband really enjoyed it. We served ours with an air fryer Texas toast.
