I was just wondering if that should be 6 cups of flour or 6 Tblspoons of flour. That seems like a lot of flour - 4/16/09

Shoot- it's 6 cups of milk. Thanks for catching that- I change it now.

Can anyone tell me what millet is? - 4/18/09

Millet is a supergrain. It is a complete protein and I use it to half meat in a recipe as well as to add fiber. You don't have to add it to the soup but we've got kids with bowel issues so I try to bulk up on the fiber when I can. http://dinnertimeagain.blogspot.com go here and search for millet.
