Is it cold and snowing where you are? We are having such an odd winter. It’s been anywhere from in the 60’s to in the high 20’s. But only a little bit of snow in November. This is not my kind of winter!

We love meals that are heart enough like this soup that are enough to actually be a meal itself. A couple of bowls of this soup and you will be full. It is a thick and hearty soup. Almost like a chowder you could say. Processing all the vegetables in the food processor helps thicken it up.
