Notes & Tips

I know adding the milk sounds weird, but it gives a smoothness to the soup and really makes the whole thing come together and look "finished". You can omit it if you have to. Sprinkle some parmesan ontop for added depth.

actually i also add milk to some of the soup recipes that i make :-) .. so that's normal for me :-) .. and I just LOVE soups.. and this ones looks really like a healthy one.. I would suggest using oatmeal instead of the rice to become healthier :-) .. you know, the pharmacist side of me is talking here :-D
