One of the new things that my family likes to do around the holidays is a soup potluck or cook-off. We all bring in our favorite soups, stews, and chili, and instead of having the traditional entrees, we have these. At first, I was skeptical, but it really turns out nice. There are so many flavors to sample there is no way anyone is walking away hungry…especially with this in one of the crock pots.
Only the best soups are versatile. Don’t be afraid to make this one your own!
