This is one of my all-time favorite recipes. It takes me literally 5 minutes to throw together. It is inexpensive, quick, nutritious and so delicious. Anyone who tastes it, asks for the recipe – you know that’s a keeper!I use an immersion blender which cuts prep and clean up time. In fact, I strongly recommend an immersion blender in every kitchen for super quick soup blending.
