Directions:
Layer all dry ingredients in a quart jar. Came with attached note:
"When you are frustrated with lots to do,
mealtime can be a big chore for you.
So, get out your big soup kettle,
read these instructions, now don't you mettle.
Bring 14 cups of water to boil,
and brown one pound hamburger without any oil.
Add meat to the water along with the dry mix,
simmer on low, the heat you must fix.
An occasional stir, as well you know
will keep it from scorching down below.
Now sample, the adjust to your taste
as this soup is far too good to waste.
We hope you enjoy it-Remember too,
That we all love you, we really do!"
Merry Christmas! Love, The Parkers
