I didn't love this soup, but I think it has more to do with the fact that I realized I don't care for roasted red peppers. It was quite bland, also. I added some oregano(1/2 tsp.) to it, and then crumbled feta cheese and fresh ground black pepper to my bowl. It was quite good with those additions.

Pretty good. I added more red bell pepper and fewer beans like others had suggested. I also added some potatoes to thicken it a bit. I'll definitely make again.

Had a small family get together at our house and made this for a first course to our dinner. Everyone loved it. First time I've ever made this recipe and it turned out fabulous! I added a few dashes of cayenne pepper...absolutely delicious!!

Delicious! A very rustic, heavy soup. I would add more garlic, basil, and cayenne pepper to taste. Drizzle olive oil as garnish. Serve with crusty bread. Mmm!

eh...this soup is good, not great. I think it should be named "Bean and Red Pepper Soup". The flavor of the Red Pepper is not very predominant. If I make it again I'll double the amount of Red Bell's. I added some fresh Basil, that helped.

Very good recipe, I was very happy with the results. I did take suggestions from other reviews (half and seed the peppers before roasting and double the garlic), but I also sauteed the onion and garlic in olive oil and 2 tbsp butter, then I also used 4 cups chicken broth which was a little more than the recipe called for. I added 3 fresh sage leaves torn up as well, simmered everything for about 10 minutes then added 1/4 cup of heavy cream after I blended the soup and took it off of the heat. I sprinkled romano cheese on top too. It could use a little spice but very good without it. Very comforting and delicious!

This was a wonderful soup, However that being said the soup did not have a very strong roasted pepper taste and as we love roasted peppers i think next time i will add maybe another two roasted red peppers. Also we found that a can of fire roasted tomatoes with chilies with a teaspoon of cumin really made this soup sing. Will for sure make again.

Delicious! I read that some people had a problem with bladness and tossed it. Mine came out wondefully flavourful and thick, and I think the trick is in the proportions. I followed the recipe up to the point when you add the chopped peppers to the onions. Here I added one can of beans in tomato sauce (canned baked beans, basically) and decided that it was beany enough. I threw in 1 and half stock cubes (1 veg, half chicken) because at this stage I thought I'd add all the liquid suggested. But after pouring in a pint of water (volume of one of the cans suggested), it looked thin enough. Blended it, tasted it, added a bit of dried parsley and cumin. Done, wonderful. So, in sum, half the beans, half the broth, a bit of extra flavouring of your choice. A lovely soup really, give it a try.

This was ok. I roasted and skinned the peppers, used only 1 can of beans. Strained it well (we like cream soups with no chuncks), added 2 tbs heavy cream and one 5 oz can of fat free evaporated milk to cut back on fat/calories. Not sure if I will make it again, but still glad I tried it.

I thought this soup was very easy to make (which is a big plus for me!) but not spicy enough. I added some cayenne and it was great!

ok. i should have read the reviews first. i made the soup (navy beans instead of cannellini beans, vegetable broth instead of chicken broth) - and i hate it. it's bland and the texture is horrible! so far, to try to remedy the soup i've added more garlic, tomato sauce, a tomato, celery, basil, and a half of a yellow pepper. Now I've got a very garlicy, kind of tomato-y soup that still has a horrible texture. Not a big fan of this one.
