I was home feeling out of sorts so I hauled out my food processor and started rummaging in the fridge and pantry. This soup is what I came up with and everyone just loves it. My fella called me from work and said I took soup for lunch and its fantastic-make it every week-DON'T change a thing. I laughed and said...ok, I guess I better write down what I did before I forget. HEEHEE
