This soup is absolutely amazing. It is my own personal recipe, and my friends LOVE IT. Warms you up in the winter without adding those extra calories you don't need! Great source of fibre, protein, complex carbs and veggies all in one bowl. Read more Not an ounce of unhealthiness in this one! See less
