    This soup is just amazing! If this is the same recipe as what’s in Meals in Minutes, it was sooo delicious when I served it on Shabbat awhile ago. I would recommend watering down the broth a little though – there wasn’t quite enough broth, and it tasted a little salty. Watering it down would solve both problems. When I served it, I remember everyone saying how fabulous it would be as a hearty soup when it’s cold out. I think this will be tonight’s dinner! Yum, can’t wait!
