Nettle Soup Recipe






My old buddy Sticks sent me this Nettle soup recipe that I thought you all might enjoy. I love nettle soup and this post is kinda making me hungry. Right now I dont have nettels but I have potatos, onions, garlic and Lentils, Ill have to throw those in a pot with some Bacon and bang out some soup of my own.
