I don't even like tomato soup, but I decided to give this a try for the family. It was delicious. I followed the recipe almost exactly. I added a bit more pesto and used zesty seasoned salt to taste instead of salt and pepper. Thanks for sharing. This will be a staple from now on.

I really wanted to like this. I thought it was just ok. I only did the second puree using my immersion blender. If I made it again, I would use more black beans and I would add the corn after the puree. The taste of "corn skins" is not pleasant. Also I preferred this with some cheese and sour cream.

This was good, but I made some changes. I used turkey broth instead of chicken and escarole instead of spinach just because I had them in the freezer. I also used a mix of red and yellow pepper and omitted the peas. I used a can of pinto and cannellini beans. I found the soup to be a bit bland so I added some dried basil and some red pepper flakes in addition to the salt and pepper. I added a couple of cups of cooked orzo and a sprinkling of grated asiago. I also served it with a side of garlic bread. TFS ETA-Make sure you double or even triple the broth if you are going to add cooked orzo. It will use up all the liquid
