Recipe by

I made this soup one day to use things I cleaned out of my pantry and freezer. It is a rich and creamy soup loaded with flavor. Sometimes, to give it a little extra flavor, I garnish with cooked and crumbled bacon. My family enjoys it either way and is a quick and easy soup to make on those busy days.
