A Sunday snow storm calls for cozy cooking. This soup is easy to make, delicious and healthy. I typically have the items in my fridge and cupboard which makes it a go-to. Like most of the winter soups I make, I always add a Parmesan rind. It adds so much flavor and you can keep them in the freezer so they’re ready to use anytime.
