APPLE-SPICE BREAKFAST SOUP



Apple-Spice Breakfast Soup image

Years ago, when I lived in Austin, Tex., I had a little business selling hot cups of soup to vendors and shoppers on the "Drag" in front of the University of Texas. This soup was always a favorite on a chilly day. It's sweet and spicy, and although you can serve it at lunch or dinner, I prefer it for breakfast, with more yogurt stirred in. Use whole-grain sandwich bread if you can.
