It seems so simple, yet I wonder how many people will screw up trying to make it?
Oh wait, I’m one of those people…

What could be easier? I’ll tell you what! My Chicken Gumbo Soup, that’s what.
Here’s the recipe..Take one can of Campbell’s Chicken Soup and one can of Campbell’s Gumbo Soup and mix together… Heat and serve…..
I made this “Secret” recipe for my family for years and nobody caught on…….

That sounds interesting. I don’t think we get the Campbell’s Gumbo Soup this side of the pond.

My mother used to make a lovely Borsch(t?). My daugher eats nothing, and I think it’s normal, but then I think, no, I ate beetroot soup happily when I was her age!
Cold is another matter though - and I hope there was no chicken stock in the strawberry soup!
