Leftover Soup That Doesnt Taste Like Leftovers Recipe

	Dond / All my dishes 2 years, 2 months ago I made this entirely out of what I found in the refrigerator this evening. It turned out so well that I thought I'd share it while the recipe is fresh in my otherwise failing memory. Virtually everything in this soup can be changed, but this is the dish that we had and thoroughly enjoyed.... More Prep:15m Cook:30m Servings:4	Dond
