In which I liked it enough to make it a second time, which means that the recipe goes on the intarwebs for YOUR reading pleasure!

This soup is easy to make, nutritious, and cheap.

I’ve made it twice — the first time I made it up as I went along, and it was yummy enough that tonight AmmZon requested it again! So I decided to write it down, lest it be lost like that amazing soup Chloe made that one time that was “too simple to forget” but was.
