Marhaba! Yes, you know by now, I do love autumn! In the past few weeks, my wife and I have been experimenting with different Autumn recipes. Just this week we had pumpkin Kibbeh and autumn salad. Today I am sharing a recipe that my wife and I tried yesterday evening as a side dish. We are planning to serve this soup as a side dish later this week for our planned Thanksgiving Dinner. Again back to learning from the world’s greatest cooks, our mothers back in Lebanon, this recipe is something our parents prepared throughout the fall and winter season. Really easy to prepare and extremely satisfying! As always, I have translated the recipe to Arabic! I am sure this helps with your learning! Make sure you try this recipe and share your results. Let us know how you and/or guests found it. Enjoy.
