Pretty yummy & hearty soup. I did make some amendments as suggest by previous reviewers and I think without them, it wouldn't have been nearly as good. I added a can of refried beans so I wouldn't have to deal with blending beans together + extra chili powder and less broth. It's super easy to make and cheap. :)

Based on these reviews, I was expecting something phenomenal. This was good but not great.

This recipe was delicious, filling, and quick. I did take the advice of the previous posters and added a bit to the recipe and I do believe that without the extra additions it wouldn't have been as good. Since I try to eat healthy I cut the oil & butter in half (and it was more than enough). I added red pepper flakes to the broccoli and garlic, cooked for about 3 minutes and then added the broth as instructed. After the broccoli was cooked, I added the pasta along with lemon juice, basil, and shredded mozarella. Pretty yummy. :)
