Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
From Mary Hunt column. Have I ever tried it? NO! Will I? Probably not. But I did think it was interesting to consider. Seems to me that the added ingredients would cost nearly as much as the can of soup, except that you'd likely throw away at least a portion of the leftover vegetables. Plus for the time involved --- I can afford to buy the soup. But maybe someday I may feel differently. The plus is the lack of salt!
