January Soup

This Historic Recipe, January Soup by June Freeman, comes to us from “Our 125th Anniversary Cookbook” – Forest Baptist Church – Forest, Ontario. In 1996 the Forest Baptist Church celebrated their 125th Anniversary and as part of the celebrations they compiled many tried and true recipes which they published in the cook book.

A teaspoon of sugar added with salt and pepper adds to the flavour. This soup is also good with ground chicken or ground turkey. Good on a cold day!
