Didn't have the celery but made it anyway. Simmering away on this first day of below freezing weather.

GLORIOUS GLORIOUS soup. Didn't have the chicken stock so I used broth and put 2 teaspoons chicken rub in. As good as this soup is with all the substitutions I made, the propper recipe must be awesome.

Made this again without modifications. Added picture. It has a slight green tint from the celery. My first thought was a light split-pea coloration.
Didn't add any garlic this time.pointsevenout in Athens loved it
