I will admit, when I heard about this soup I was more than a little skeptical. I knew my kids would love it but I was not sure that I would care too much for it. So after both my kids and my husband gave it rave reviews, I decided to give it a try although I dreaded raising my spoon for that first bite.
But then, I was really pleasantly surprised! I had someone suggest to me that when I made it, to try it with some chopped dill pickles added as garnish and, against my better judgement, I did just that. I would have never imagined it in a million years, but the pickles absolutely made this dish for me. Seriously! Who knew?
This recipe just goes to show that you never really know until you give a new recipe a try how much you will like it. It’s been pretty dreary here the last couple of days and so a nice big pot of soup is in order and this is our soup of choice this week. Enjoy.
