BM #81 Week 4 Day 3 -
I was first skeptical initially as I thought that the soup had very minimal spices. But the humble ingredients in this soup added a subtle flavor which was comforting by itself. My family agrees with that and we enjoyed a hearty dinner with this soup and bread.

Add in the greens (I used Spinach) and let them cook for a couple of minutes until they are just about cooked.
