This was pretty good although I halved the recipe but forgot to halve the garlic. It was pretty strong. My bad lol

This was not an enjoyable meal at all. It didn't look appetizing and the entire chowder had an off taste to it. I can't put my finger on what the odd flavor was but it wasn't good. I won't be making this again.

Mmmm, this is yummy! Because our family loves the veggies I added a bit more and then because we're suckers for a creamier soup I added a carton of sour cream towards the end of the simmering and the broth is so yummy I find myself just wanting to drink it straight.

I wanted to use what I had in the cupboard, which was two cans of cannelini beans and one can of barlotti beans. I found this recipe first off, made it quickly, and loved it!!! Yum, yum! I am so full from my one small bowl! I will definitely make this again! (Oh, I too used chicken broth instead of water.) Thanks for sharing it!

Made this yesterday and it was SO SO good! Thank you so much for this idea, Adam. Instead of water I used broth from my roasted soy/sesame chicken breasts. I can't use onion or garlic so I need all the flavor help I can get. I did not simmer the beans more than 45 minutes since I was worried the black beans would be mushy. I just let the veggies simmer for about half an hour first, then added the beans. Absolutely delicious!

We have tried this recipe twice, and both times we have ended up disliking it. It tastes like watered down beans and that's it. Even adding more vegetables and seasoning didn't help.

Love beans, but could not get past the bacon roux.

Made as stated except used no oil other than the bacon grease. And didn't have enough beans so used 1 can great northerns, 1 can kidneys. Then added 1 can diced tomatoes and 2 cans of "just add water" bean and bacon soup that I had been wanting to use up. This turned out great! My "pickies" even ate it up!

This was okay... We made this and split it with our friends. They really enjoyed it, but we thought it was just okay. Definitely worth making, though, because I can see how you could really love it. It's just not my husband's and my style. :)
