So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the awesome review Joe. 🙂
I do it the same way, except after the onion and garlic sauted I add a few leaves of lettuce, they add sweetness and are easier to digest. I also add chili pepper as I like my soup spicy.
Thanks for the recipe.

This is a great recipe. I add carrots to mine.
Sounds great! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
I’ve tried this with split peas too. It takes a bit longer to cook but is just as tasty. A great starter. Rich and creamy!![5 stars](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODdhAQABAPAAAP///wAAACwAAAAAAQABAEACAkQBADs=)
