I really liked this recipe; although I made a few tweaks. First off, I used green/red peppers because I think they give off a better flavor. Also, I used chicken broth for everything that called for water (since I used ground turkey). I also added a good bit of paprika, minced garlic and garlic powder to the mix while I was cooking it. I used a whole can of broth instead of 1/2 a cup, because the rice took longer to tenderize and it kept getting dryer than I prefer. There is nothing worse than a dry stuffed pepper! They came out really great! I was cooking for a friend of mine, and she said they were the best stuffed peppers she ever had!

very yummy & hearty soup that my boyfriend and I LOVE! (and we're not even vegan..haha). I don't have a food processor, so blending the beans & tomatoes is a bit harder in a blender. I only use 3 cups of broth, initially and then use the other cup to use in the blender in the 2nd step. The liquid helps everything blend much better & smoother & keeps your blender from blowing up!

I made this for Christmas and my family LOVED it! I do agree with other users when they suggest adding horseradish and various other spices!
