For the last several weeks it has been on and off snowing. I mean it has been sooo cold and windy. If there is one thing about me, it is that I do not enjoy cold weather one bit! Bring me the Florida sun to definitely put a smile on my face. So, when the weather man said to prepare for another snow storm I immediately knew I needed to make a hearty comfort soup to keep warm.
I decided to make a vegetable chili. This dish is filled with flavor and will definitely fill you up. Feel free to add any vegetables you like.
