Personal Notes:
This is a Bonsal Family favorite! It's gotten to the point my husband and kids just say "Soup" in a sing-song voice and I know what they want for dinner! When I cook soup I often choose to add extra ingredients to stretch the soup or simply because it sounds good. It's a great idea to make a recipe the way it is written once, and the second time try playing around with ingredients or spices, thus putting on that "Mandy Twist" on every recipe! Make sure you jot down notes in the your book for next time!
