I have been using this recipe every fall/winter for 4-5 years now and it's still a favorite of mine and my now wife loves it as well! It's both easy and delicious.

This is our go to soup in the Fall & Winter. Love it! Only thing I change is I make my own broth.

This soup is a delicious comfort food. I added a little garlic salt and cut the regular salt. I put in about a teaspoon of sage leaves and I will cut that in half next time. I eat an AIP diet, so I used cauliflower rice and it added a barley-like texture that was really nice.

I was listening to a podcast on nutrition yesterday and they were touting the benefits of turmeric. I have it in pantry but never think to use it. This soup is a perfect use for it!
