Delicious solyanka soup
Description
The recipe won't take much time. You'll need a lot of different ingredients for this soup, but they're all things everyone has in their kitchen. I'm a fan of chicken broths, so I liked this version more than the meat-based one. I also suggest you try it. Ladle into bowls and serve.
