This soup is amazing! I love it! I'm a big fan of cilantro. Trying to add more beans to my diet. Such a healthy combination of ingredients and so flavorful! I do add some cooked quinoa when I add the cilantro at the end to make it a bit heartier. Tastes even better reheated the following day. I've been making this about once a week for the past month.

We love this recipe. We always add cubed chicken and serve with tortilla chips, sour cream and cheese.

Great soup! When I make for my family, it's made as written. When I make it for myself, I use veggie broth and leave out the chicken. A really great soup either way.

This was really good, but I made quite a few changes: I used 1/2 the liquid, used canned corn instead, and added cooked chicken torn in bits. Skipped the cilantro & lime.

This is awesome! The only change I made was to use Fire Roasted tomatoes because that is what I had. A definite do again recipe!!!

Excellent! Only change was substituted green chiles for the jalapeno. My kids loved it...and it makes a huge batch, so plenty for the freezer.

This is an easy & flavorful soup. I skipped the oil & celery in the Fast Chicken Soup Base and used less cumin, but followed the rest of the recipe as written.

I used lime juice instead and less ground cumin. My 2 year-old even ate it. Took no time to make.

We loved this! Even my picky kids liked it in spite of the fact that it was made with vegis. I adjusted to include what I had. I have made it with some rice and/or potatoes to make it a bit more filling. I have made it with and without chunks of chicken, but always with the chicken broth. It's fabulous served with sour cream, cilantro, chopped chives and a squeeze of lime on top. This is pretty quick and a good stick to your ribs meal in one pot that is even better accompanied with some fresh bread. We are having it with a sourdough boule that is rising in the oven now. This is definitely recommended.
