this was almost good. i think the texture bothered me the most. it was way too thick. i used natural peanut butter, so i felt it necessary to add some brown sugar...i added a serrano pepper and extra chile flakes, but it still wasn't spicy enough for me. i would probably use a little more rice, too. the flavor was almost what i was hoping for, but i'm not sure if i'll make it again.

I was skeptical, but now I'm a believer! I used the college student method of garlic powder and onion powder and let everything boil while I wrote a paper. I think it would be great garnished with fresh herbs (cilantro?).

Not as flavorful as we had thought it would turn out, though it grew on us as we ate it. I have to say that the addition of freshly sliced apples on the side, as one reviewer suggested, would have been perfect. And an even better suggestion by my husband was to add pineapple. It's very filling and was interesting (in a mostly positive way) for trying something different.

Yum yum yum! Being a peanut butter lover and always looking for new taste combinations thought I'd give this a try. Fantastic. If you don't LOVE peanut butter, you may want to cut it back a little. Ends up being pretty creamy - might be too much for some. But for me - EXCELLENT. Definitely serve with crusty bread for dipping. Also, apple slices compliment this soup well.

I was a little hesitant to make this at first, since I wasn't so sure about the tomatoes and peanut butter. But it is really delicious! It's a great recipe for vegetarians, since there's no meat at all and it's good for you. Don't be deterred by the combination of ingredients!

What a great recipe. I put the onions, peppers, and garlic in the food processor to mince them and it came out great. I also chopped up the tomatoes before adding them too. I made this for myself first, then for a family dinner. Everyone loved it and asked for the recipe.
