I did not grow up eating any soup but Cajun Gumbo, and chicken noodle from a can. When I got older, I started trying various vegetable soups at restaurants and found out I really liked it. The thought of making it myself was a little intimidating, it looked difficult. Then I thought, "how hard could it be" and I experimented until I came up with this tasty soup. Enjoy!
