This soup wasn't anything special. Very bland in my opinion.

MmmmMmmmm, Good! Kind of a mellow soup. Very nice blend of flavors. I did a teetotaler's version, but crushed some grapes in with the apples and 1/4 cup water to make up for absence of wine. Still, though, an excellent soup, I'm sure either way.

This is an unusual blend of flavors that combine to make a delicious soup. I made it as directed except that I sauteed the celery with the onion and I added a little more beef stock. A nice way to use fall apples.

This is pretty yummy. I added a couple of tablespoons of brown sugar to balance the acidity of the canned tomatoes. It's one of those dishes that, once you start, will leave you returning for "just one more spoonful." I will be adding this to my regular household menu.

This was a good hearty soup, but not spectacular. However, I do believe it is because I chose some of the wrong variables. Next time would use a granny smith apple and dice so that the apple retains its flavor (I used Fuji). I would also pick a higher quality bacon and definitely thick cut. Overall a decent soup. Cooking apples in with the wine though - that's a whole new culinary world in itself. Thanks!

This was fantastic!! I had an excess of tomatoes and apples so I was looking for a way to use both. Instead of draining the bacon grease I used it to cook the onions, garlic and celery. So YUM! And I used 2 fresh tomatoes in place of the stewed canned tomatoes. Our dinner guests were skeptical but after one bite they were raving about it! Huge hit!!!!! Thank you!! I'm actually making another pot this afternoon because they ate it all! I would definitely double this recipe.

This is delicious! Especially the second day. I thought my family would really balk at the title when I told them what I was making, but all of them (except for my youngest brother because he is quite picky) said it sounded interesting. Plus, they really liked it (oh, except for aforementioned brother). I will definitely make this again!

Here's some details about my prep of this soup. A few directions were iffy, so I'm including them in my review. I drained & rinsed the beans. I also did not add any salt or pepper. I chopped the bacon into slices before cooking it (so much easier this way). And I omitted the celery because my husband doesn't like it. I also added another 1/2 can of diced tomatoes because it looked like it needed more tomatoes... and it definitely did because the soup only made 4 servings. I used cabernet sauvignon which paired nicely with the tomatoes. This is really scrumptious with many layered flavors but it honestly tasted like a fancier version of a bean & ham soup. It's very simple to make, too, and smells wonderful while cooking. I made hot ham & cheese sandwiches to serve with it and everyone enjoyed it.

My husband loved it, I liked it. The phrase, "the whole does not equal the sum of its parts", came to mind when I ate it. I'd give it three, but since my husband was such a fan I gave it four stars.

This was a tasty soup. Don't let the apple put you off. It is not prominent, but seems to add something to the background that really works. I did use an entire onion, about 1 cup.

My wife and daughter aren't big fans of spicy soups, so I've made it to myself (they got nice tuna one). Had no tomatoes of recommended type, so I took Arrabbiata tomato sauce and it came out absolutely fantastic. Many thanks for recipe, goes straight to my favourites!

This was a big and surprising)hit! Followed recipe as stated with one exception. I did not simmer the apples and wine separately. Put everything in one pot and simmered in for about 2 hours. The only change I will make next time is to puree the tomatoes before added them to the soup -- I think it will make a nicer consistency. Will definitely make again.

Excellent! I prefer more bacon and diced instead of stewed tomatoes, but still excellent with just about any bean too. I like to cube ( 1/4 ") parmesan cheese into the serving dish to cool it to a confortable temperature and melt the cheese, and I believe I'll try fresh spinach next time. Stiil an very tasty recipe as is, it holds up really well with many variations.
