Super easy to make and super easy to prep for. Used this recipe for a potluck birthday party and it was a big hit. Gone in an hour at this 8 serving size. Had 6 people ask for the recipe which I shared openly. The aroma this soup gave every time you opened the lid was remarkable! Will be making it again this fall on cold days for the family.
