    Easy, Tasty and warms the cockles on a cold day!! I use a bouillon cube and a cup of water instead of the broth. - 11/5/10

    Oh my goodness, I just made a big batch of this for the very first time for a function tomorrow and it is delicious! I cooked it all in the crockpot, added 3 bay leaves, then pureed everything, minus the bay leaves. I think I am going to get some sour cream to put on top, it is delicious! - 10/30/10

    what i do is steam the veggies first and them blend/mash them and then cook them in the broth. - 10/22/10

    Soup was very good. Easy to make, I cook for 4, so simple math to halve the amounts. - 10/22/10
