My wonderful wife, Tracy, made this last night. The Bell Pepper Soup was so rich with the addition of Goat Cheese. The sliced london broil had been marinated in dijon mustard, green onions and worchestershire sauce and then grilled.  The Leeks and Squash were tossed in EVOO, salt and pepper and then baked.
