Notes
This soup is especially good with garlic-cheese bread. To make, melt a teaspoon or two of garlic compound butter in a saute pan, rub sliced bread in the melted butter to soak up all the goodness, then cook on low till the first side turns golden brown and delicious.Repeat on the opposite side, then place the toasted bread on a half sheet pan lined with parchment paper, top with a white melting cheese (like mozzarella), and bake at 400*F until gooey and just beginning to brown around the edges.
