    I believe I found this recipe in Cooking Light several years ago. The first time I made it I was floored by its fresh, delicious flavor. It was the first time I ever made something and thought, "this tastes like something in a really good restaurant!" Celebrate spring (it really is coming despite all the snow!) with this delicious soup!
