Tip #1: You can add any type of meat to "beef" up this basically meatless dish e.g. chicken, beef, pork etc. The only requirement is that the pieces remain large otherwise they will disappear in the soup. Tip #2: You can make some flour dumplings and plunk them in the soup about 1/2 hour before you are ready. Tip #3: This soup gets very thick very fast! A little water and butter will thin it out.
