Made it for myself at home, absolutely loved it! So, Saturday I am going to go over to my aunt’s house and make it for her and my uncle for dinner. Also will be making a quiche to go with instead of the usual grilled cheese sammies, for a different and maybe just a bit more upscale meal.

This is an exceptionally delicious recipe. I will be making this one again and again. I just had a bowl of Jason’s tomato basil soup yesterday and this recipe is a great substitute. Thank you Audrey. Praying for God to bless you and your family.
