How This Helps
This soup recipe is a routine at home because its my hubby’s favorite soup. Usually tomatoes aren’t added to the soup but sometimes I add some tomato puree to provide a different taste to the soup. I’ve made a low-carb version here with only milk and corn starch instead of heavy cream that’s usually utilized in these sorts of soups. It’s a really simple prep and may be done in a jiffy when you’re searching for something light and filling.
