Everyone who's tried this has loved it. Byerly's is a Twin Cities,
upper crust supermarket. They serve this soup at thier soup and salad
bar, and it's available, frozen, in a lot of area stores. Homemade is
still the best.

I can certainly give opinion here, my grandaughter and I made a
double. She comes now and then to spend a day with me, and we either
cook or go shopping. This was a cooking day, and I sent the child
home with 3 quarts of this very good soup. Easy enough to make, and
delicious!
