My daughter prepared this soup when I visited her last week. It was fantastic!! Incredible!! Delicious!!!! I WILL prepare this myself. It's a recipe that will be a included in our family cookbook.
My daughter says the recipe is almost identical to the soup that Mike's Grill in NW Phoenix serves. Mike's Grill is THE place for great Greek food in Phoenix!
