I LOVE this soup. Now that it is getting colder out its time to cook a hearty soup.
This soup is really easy to change the ingredients and mix things up.
10 Casseroles in 3 Hours
The same friend that sent me the link to the 365 crockpot recipes also included the recipes and assembly directions for how to make "10 casseroles in 3 hours". That might be a little deceiving because it's actually only 5 different recipes, but they make double portions. Anyway, I thought I would pass this information on to you all, just in case you might have a free afternoon to make all of these.Flour Tortilla Crisps with Parmesan

My mother is a reader of Woman's Day Magazine (whose recipes I usually love) and she passed on these 2 ingredient recipe cards to me.
