Original Recipe from here: Eatwell 101
** The
original recipe called for a small jar of sun dried tomatoes, when I went to
open mine, the lid did not POP as it should have. Being a fanatic about food safety, I tossed
it and improvised.
I did
not add heavy cream. I simply didn't
like the sound of it - but the soup turned out fantastically - and I can't wait
to have it again soon!
