Very good! I added a can of black beans and about a cup of salsa. I also added some cumin. My family loved it!

I have this recipe "almost" but I add a couple of sliced carrots, celery, fresh garlic, fresh jalapeno and a can of Rotel, undrained. I also use 2 or 3 cans of broth. In other words, it is a really good base soup and you can add whatever your family enjoys, to it.

This soup was great after I added some things to it. I increased the amount of the rice and water and then added jalapeno peppers to it. It helped spicy up the dish.

Add one can of rotel (undrained) to make it spicier and soupier. I also sauted celery in with my onions and used real garlic. I threw in some diced fresh mushrooms as well. It tasted really good and the rotel really gave it some kick.

So easy to make and tasty - I didn't alter the spices at all. I doubled the recipe for an event at my daughter's school, and I used one red and one green pepper for added color.

I have this recipe also, but I add 1 jalepeno at the beginning and saute it with onion, and garnish with shredded cheese and cilantro.. Yum

Great soup! I think next time I'll add more chicken broth so it's a little more "soupy"! Thanks Sarah!

Very tasty and easy to make recipie. I substitute pasta (angel hair or thinner) for the rice and sometimes just use 1/4 to 1/2 a cup broth to season the veggies and pasta. This makes it a great pasta dish when you're not in the mood for soup.

The soup was okay. Not exactly what I'd call a fiesta. Adding lime juice directly to the soup helped. Also real garlic instead of powder is best. It was quick to make, I'll give it that much. I dunno, it needs something else.
