This was fabulous. I didn't really change anything except omitting the coconut powder (didn't have any) and I used a large can of diced tomatoes. I'm pretty sure you don't need the coconut oil either, olive or canola or whatever you have on hand would probably work. My husband ate his with hot chili sauce and I had mine with fresh lime juice. A little really does go a long way- it's filling! We both loved it. Even cut to half this recipe made quite a bit; I hope it freezes well! Thanks Lindsay, this one is a keeper!

A very quick and easy soup, perfect for a working couple. My husband loved it. I added more fresh lemon juice and rice as others suggested and used left over BBQ chicken from a couple nights before. We'll be making this again. Thanks!

I'm a baking rookie and I followed this recipe making no changes. I think using fresh cranberries is critical. I found the cookies were kind of plain and not quite sweet enough- so I added a drizzle of sugary glaze I found at this recipe- "Old-Fashioned Soft Pumpkin Cookies" This saved the cookies and made them very, very good. Don't add too much glaze though otherwise it'll be too sweet! Next time I'll add more pumpkin, cranberries and add pumpkin spice, maybe some nutmeg. I'd still make these again!
