"This is a recipe I received from my friend Julie who loved life and I am honored to have known her. She had the same quirky sense of humor that I have and we had some great times together. The soup has a thin broth but you are welcome to thicken it if you so desire. To Reheat: Only reheat as much as you can eat. Don't reheat the whole pot."
