Artichoke Soup-5 Ingredient-talk about easy

Sometimes, one of those forgotten recipes pops up in your mind as the perfect food.  Well, that’s what happened when the Go Red For Women Luncheon came around this year…they said they wanted an inexpensive, quick soup to add to the menu I had given them and my 5 ingredient no-fuss Artichoke Soup came to mind.  It was one of those recipes I made a million times, years ago….and then truly forgot about it.  When I say from blender to bowl…that is about it..of course, you can heat it in the microwave.  I would garnish the soup with some chopped green onions for added color and a little crunch.
