Years ago, I had an interesting recipe for "Reuben Soup", though I never made it. It had
all the essentials of a Reuben (with the rye bread on the side -- though croutons woulda
been cool).
.
.
.
I forgot that I've HAD this combo. Here in Tucson, one of the best (if not THE best) sandwich
joints is on 4th Ave (our version of Philly's South Street) -- Bison Witches.
.
One of the best deals in town is their half-sandwich/soup in a bread bowl combo and both
elements above are among the choices (they WERE -- I haven't been there in many years).
.
.
Their origin of their name, Bison Witches?

"Buy Sandwiches".
.
.
.
Back then, they had a big & strong, strong STRONG $1 Margarita special for their Friday Happy Hour, too.

It was, "Who's a happyman?!?!?"

"MiddleFingerMom's a happyman!!!"

It's the ONE Campbell's soup that I like -- but due to sodium, a rare RARE guilty pleasure. MiddleFingerMom Mar 2012 #9

Welcome to the club. Low sodium = low taste. ohiosmith Mar 2012 #12

I actually don't agree with that. MiddleFingerMom Mar 2012 #19

Maybe my taste buds have yet to adjust. I always liked a lot of salt. When I had to reduce my intake ohiosmith Mar 2012 #21

Let me see what I can do, I probably have a tomato soup recipe somewhere. Chan790 Mar 2012 #23
