• Mary 1 /12/2012 @ 5:47 am I had no idea. That really is a TON of health benefits. I need to try watercress now. The soup sounds great. Reply

• Marla 1 /10/2012 @ 6:36 pm Such a pretty soup Greg. Glad to know that real men like watercress 😉 Reply
• Gillian 1 /10/2012 @ 4:18 pm Every since hearing about the watercress soup diet I’ve avoided it (weird British extreme weight loss documentary), but this looks like something I could enjoy! Reply
• Lizthechef 1 /10/2012 @ 1:12 pm Never would have thought to put watercress and sage together — what a great starter for a dinner party… Reply
• jgreghenry 1 /10/2012 @ 1:55 pm Just a tiny bit of sage doesn’t overtly flavor this soup so much as it makes it more aromatic. Besides sage is manly! GREG Reply
