This soup is so nive we had to put the word soup in twice. Healthy and with a hint of spice, a great change from the everyday. If you’re missing one of the main ingredients just substitute with a similar vegetable (example, can’t find okra, use another dark green, like broccoli, bok choy, or whatever you’d like)
