I love soup so much and because the weather was so crappy last night it felt appropriate to make soup for dinner even though it’s almost June. This soup paired really well with my Pillsbury Crescent Samosas and made for a perfect meal for two. Check out my post on veggie broth to learn how to make your own. It’s so easy to make, it saves resources, and it makes your place smell really good. There’s no reason anyone should be buying vegetable broth.
