I doctored this up a bit and enjoyed it very much. I added carrots and bell pepper to the other veggies. At the end, I added a can of tomato paste, so it turned out to be a tomato-vegetable soup. I almost added ground turkey, but didn't. I also thought about adding chunks of ham. I think either would have made it even better. I will definitely make again.

Made this last night and was pleased with the result. Almost forgot the can of baked beans but added it just before it was too late. I also added 1 carrot with the other veggies and 1 clove of garlic before the final heat along with 1/2 tsp of basil. Next time I'll probably cut the basil down to 1/4 tsp. Cooked the cabbage for about 15 minutes, stirring every 5. My beans were a big tin of Bush's southern pit bbq beans as that is all I had. Tasted surprisingly good but the house still smelt a bit of cooked cabbage ;-)

This is a great recipe but I wanted a little more spice. I added one package of Lawry's spaghetti sauce powder. I also added 1 lb. of pork meat and 1 large can of diced tomatoes. I cooked it in the crock pot. Thank you for the recipe. I will definitely make it again.

I made this soup yesterday on a snowy day and found it to be easy, and quick to make. Upon tasting it, I felt it was rather bland, and not enough broth. On a whim, I added one more can of chicken broth and a can of condensed tomato soup. It made a big difference in the flavor, and it was hard to stop eating! I recommend it.

Awesome. I oil and kosher salt the potatoes before baking. I make several extras and freeze them individually for future use

Pretty good, but a little bland....I would try to add more of a tomato base to it :)

I also found this recipe to be bland. Adding some ham or smoked sausage helped a lot. Another thing that helped was adding some apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons or more, added just the right zing.
