Recipe Description
Continuing soup week with one of my faves, mussel soup. A rich tomato based broth, with wine, garlic and fresh parsley. Serve with crusty bread and you have a quick and easy meal that I made in under 20 minutes.
Based on the Belgian classic, moules (mussels) provençale. Brussels is one of my favorite cities and I can never get enough mussels when I’m in Brussels (oh, a little poetry).
