This soup has a lot of potential, and I love that it doesn't use dairy. However, we thought the orange zest was way out of place. I used less than called for, and still it was the dominant flavor. I'm also not sure the honey is necessary. I made this with almond milk, and it was thick and creamy. I also used fresh corn, and subbed freshly roasted Hatch green chiles for the jalapeno, which gave it more heat (I don't think it'd be very spicy with just the half jalapeno). If I were to make this again, I'd roast the bell peppers for more flavor, add more oregano, omit the orange zest, and add a bit of cumin.
