Scotch Broth Soup

By: Ann Main 
"Early in winter, I make up big pots of this hearty soup to freeze in plastic containers. Then I can bring out one or two containers at a time. I heat the frozen soup in a saucepan on low all morning. By lunchtime, it's hot and ready to serve! --Ann Main, Moorefield, Ontario"
