This was great. My kids didn't eat it, but I was expecting that. I used water and beef bullion (only had 1 can of chicken stock) instead of the 2 cups of water. I also added more garlic, rosemary, no celery and used frozen spinach and added frozen broccoli as well. Ate it with buttered bread. I will make this again.

This is such a quick recipe for such an elegant soup! I loved this. I used chicken broth in place of the water and added more garlic. I also used a dollop of sour cream when I added the blended mixture to the soup. It gave the soup a great color and added a subtle creamy taste! I will definitely make this recipe again...it took me only 20 minutes, start to finish.

Very Yummy. I added a little more garlic, sprinkled in some tarragon, and added some ground beef. Easy, inexpensive, and quick.

This was okay as directed, but it was too thick and too bland. I ended up adding 3 cups of chicken broth so that it was more like a soup and less like a thick stew.

This is a great bean soup recipe. To make mine heartier, I added an extra can of beans after pureeing the soup. At the suggestion of others, I also used a lot more garlic (5 cloves) and threw in a bay leaf while sauteeing the vegetables. Tarragon is a great susbstitue for the thyme. Just use a couple of tablespoons of whole fresh tarragon leaves in its place.

Delicious! I used 5 cloves of garlic, some thyme, and some dried parsley. I also used escarole instead of spinach - which was delish! And a bay leaf. I also used 32 oz of chicken broth instead of the water, but there was a little too much liquid - I'll try for 28 oz next time. So to soak up the extra broth, I added half a box of orzo noodles, uncooked, to the pot, and let it soak up the additional liquid. It came out more like a stew than a soup, but it was delicious! I will make it the same way next time!

Great basic recipe. I used a large onion, 2 cloves of garlic, and 2 cans of chicken stock - omitting the water. Very tasty and satisfying, however next time I will start with sauteing some pancetta then adding the onion. Also when I make this soup again I will add the chicken sausage suggested by one of the other reviewers.

This was very tasty! I did make some slight changes based on other suggestions. I used all chicken broth, substituted parsley for the thyme (don't like thyme), and drizzled my serving with a little olive oil. I would make this again!

What a simple yet delicious soup. I only used one can of white kidney beans and 1 cup of water and forgot the garlic (I know, how do you forget garlic!). It is fabulous! Thank you!

This is a fine and tasty, and different, bean soup. Extra lemon juice and olive oil is nice, as other reviewers have recommended. I've also added more veggies (broccoli, cauliflower, and green beans) which was pretty good too.

I have been making this recipe for a couple of years now. It is a tried and true family favorite. My husband loves it when I add some leftover shredded chicken and a little hot sauce. I will continue to make this again and again! Thank you!

Tast was good, the texture was not what I would call creamy, though, more like grainy. I used vegetable broth instead of chicken because I am vegetarian, but I really don't think that is what made the difference. Thanks.

I was excited to make this but the end result was just ok. Needs a lot of additions like more garlic, salt, Rosemary, whatever else sounds good. Otherwise it's very bland. I guess it's a good base recipe!
