Holiday Recipes II

Another recipe that isn’t strictly a Holiday dish but seems to be more desired during that time, is this soup that I made for our Sunday school class party yesterday. I made it several years ago, when in a panic for something for dinner I started pulling anything and everything out of the fridge to see what I could put together. I started throwing things in the pot and we really enjoyed the end product so I made a list on the computer of everything I had put in it and left it at that. Since then I have made the soup and it continues to be a favorite of ours but until Saturday I had never written down the amount of each ingredient. I made quite a large pot so these measurements are strictly for large groups or if you decide to try it you can be brave and cut things back a bit. If I make it again just for us I will probably try to do that, but for now, here it is in all it’s hugeness!
