This recipe was first made several years ago. Since it was first made it’s taken on huge transformation. This new addition has a delicious smoky flavor. Oh, and it literally took me less than thirty minutes to prepare.
This specific recipe states it serves 6-8 people. That is not 100% true. It depends on the size of your bowl and how you want to use the recipe. If you enjoy as a soup then yes, it may be 6-8 people. The recipe is large and having extra is worth it… trust me.
