Love this soup! So simple to make, so delicious! Added the crumbled bacon suggested by another cook and also some chopped scallions. This goes in my "keepers" book!

I have been using this recipe for years. It came to me through email. My kids love it. I fry bacon and crumble it up to add to the soup. It makes it perfect. And I never seem to make enough.
