The Finding Nemo Fish Soup

Description

The Finding Nemo Fish Soup was inspired by a few of my female fitness clients. I had a conversation with the few ladies and they suggested that I add a fish soup to my recipe menu. I asked them for their advice because this was my first time considering something like this. I went home that evening and I just like Nemo. I felt like a lost fish, looking for ideas to find a “fish.” In this case a fish recipe. Never in a million years I would thought that I would be creating my own custom recipes. Call me Chef Hearns. Enjoy The Finding Nemo Fish Soup.
