Enjoying a hot bowl of soup on those cold winter days.

Cresty soup is another one of my favorite soups of all time. Not only does it taste great, but it is also so simple to make. You can easily make this soup and freeze it to keep for about 2-3 months.

Give it a try and let us know what you think.
