Thanks chef Pablo copy cat for cutback

I make this when the weather starts to turn cold.A couple of notes on preparation:••• I like to make this on the first cold days of the year. It's hearty and warming and delicious. ••• If the soup gets too thick while it boils, add a little milk and let it cook in for a minute. If it gets too runny, mix some flour and a small amount of half and half in a separate container, and pour that into the soup instead. I like it thick, but this could easily become gravy by accident.Also, consider the fat content of a meal made with a pint of half and half. You can use milk instead, but the soup will be less creamy and flavorful. You can use whole cream to make it really rich, but this is really too thick. A good compromise is to mix half and half with milk if you wish to decrease fat content while retaining texture.

Made this for my picky son cause he was sick. Even the baby ate it and loved it!

#Mycookbook So we all know this soup is fatty. I try to make it a wee bit better by using 1% milk.. but let's face it.. it's not a low fat dish! Enjoy!!! (Add franks red hot to kick it up a bit)
