  1. I made this soup for our mom and kids campout July 2010. To be honest, I didn't even really taste it b/c I made it ahead of time and stuck it in the cooler for the campout. I served the soup with subs made on french bread loaves and the soup disappeared before I had a chance to have any. Either it was super yummy, or food just tastes better when you're camping in the woods. Two thumbs up. (I have even been hit up for the recipe!)
