This soup is fantastic! We don't like zucchini, so I used half a bag of coleslaw mix. We love the taste, and it is definitely a keeper.

SO GOOD!!! and easy! I am a beginner cook and managed just fine. I was a bit wary to try this and wasn't sure how it would turn out but it is AMAZING. The flavors are unique-- a delightful mix of warm spices, sweet ginger and just enough tangy spice to keep it interesting and balanced. This soup also gets better as it sits so leftovers are to die for...a must try!!!

Exceptional recipe. We enjoyed it with extra spinach alongside "Skillet Grilled Catfish" recipe and some homemade french fries. Perfect! Next time I might just try adding in some jalapenos for my spice-lovin' husband!

This did not turn out well for me. It seemed a bit bland. I don't think I would make again.

This is a wonderfully satisfying soup, especially if you're dieting and enjoy savory, full flavored food. Very simple to make and will make it again for sure

This soup was incredibly bland as written. I had to add quite a bit of ingredients to make it decent, and even then it was nothing special. I won't make this again.

This was really good - I made it for my fiancee after reading all the good reviews, and she liked it a lot. She's a new Vegan, so finding good food is still kinda tough for her. The only thing I changed about the recipe was that I minced a bunch of crystallized ginger I had on hand, rather that using fresh ginger. I also omitted the turbinado sugar, since the crystallized ginger had sugar in it. I pulsed my soup in the blender for a few seconds, and I have to say, it turned out really well - very smooth, visually appealing, and the flavors were great. You can definitely taste the spinach, and the heat was very subtle - it snuck up to you, and was very "warm", rather than coming across as too spicy. Will definitely make this one again, perhaps with some marinated tofu added in for good measure.

This recipe is ridiculous in the best way possible. Try it! Don't worry if you don't use every specific ingredient -- mix and match, improvise...but do use fresh ginger instead of powdered if possible.

Unique soup, I love the ginger. I tripled the spinach and could even add more as it really cooks down. I went ahead and pureed it all but found a few potato chunks which were nice, so next time I'll leave some more chunky. I'd actually like a little more garlic and maybe some black pepper as well, I went lite on the cayenne just incase :-) I'm looking forward to eating it tomorrow and seeing if its even better.

Extremely good. I also like chuncky soup so I didn't puree it either. I didn't have fresh ginger and used powdered ginger and it came out so yummy! Next time, I am going to put some extra firm tofu in it to give me some protein. But awesome tasting recipe!

Absolutely wonderful recipe! I've been looking for a good soup that didn't have any pasta or meat in it. The old standby veggie soup was getting a little tired. by the way-i didn't blend the soup and it was still wonderful!

Thank you for submitting this recipe. Being on a 10% fat/vegetarian diet, it is very difficult to find great recipes. I am not missing a thing with this dish! I look forward to making it, as written, when I have the ingred. on-hand. I used sweet potatoes, instead of yellow, and added a can of black beans. I also added yellow squash, just because it had to be used - went very well. I didn't have vege broth to substitute the chicken broth, so used V-8, diluted. This soup is perfect for this fall weather- hearty and flavorful-I will have often!

This soup tasted MUCH BETTER the second day. It took a lot of time to chop all the veggies. It has an unusual taste but I love that it is super healthy.
