Harvest Soup

This soup is a beautiful autumn color, with the sweet sun-ripened flavor of a summer harvest...which in fact, it is. It was contributed by Don Schonnop, a father of four who says "I like to help in the kitchen with our family, and soups happen to be one of my favorites. Especially on the cold and wet months." This recipe, served hot, makes a rich and satisfying lunch for 4 to 6 people, especially with half a sandwich on the side.
