One I love soups, two I love jalapenos, so I guess this is love! It sounds so good.. You must be as bad a I am... I'm always asking for recipes from restaurants.. What can they do... tell you no? I like trying to copy what they serve..


My husband makes fun of me, because if I like something at a restaurant I ask to speak to the chef. They don't always give me the restaurant but I have over 400 in my collection that they have given me. Can't hurt to ask. Yummers.


I forgot to rate this... I made it about 2 months ago... Had to cut in half.. but it worked.. OMG... it is wonderful .. worth a 6 to me!!!


Is the Reata open again?? Last I knew I planned a visit to the restaurant and a big ol tornado messed up those plans. :-/


No, unfortunately it is did not reopen after the tornado. I ate there before this restaurant was destroyed. It was really good and a real shame to lose it.


Wow! alright! this is just the kind of soup i enjoy.! i am soo happy i came upon this site.


Yum Yum Yum 5!
