recipe reviews for:

Quick Hoppin' John Soup

“This is a modification of my father's hoppin' john recipe. The only difference between his and mine is the use of tomatoes. It's a great recipe for the holidays (New Year's) or any time during winter months. There are many versions of this recipe here, but this one is quick so you can throw it together after a long day at work for the whole family to enjoy!”

This was awesome and just had it for our New Years Dinner!! We used recommendations from others and used Dirty Rice and Kielbasa instead and was outstanding. We will make this again!!

I made exactly as written- really good and so easy. I made for New Years's (legumes and pork are considered good luck for the New Year). Will make again and again. Served with cornbread made from Marie Callender's "restaurant style" mix (excellent). Thanks for sending this!

I'm sure this is fantastic as written! I didn't have a wild rice mix, so I added about 1 1/2 c. white rice and seasoned with some creole seasoning, a bay leaf, cayenne and black pepper. I also added diced onion when I was cooking the sausage. Before adding the rice, I let it simmer, uncovered, for about 30 minutes to reduce the liquid and let the flavor intensify a bit. The final result wasn't really a soup, but more of a casserole consistency. I served with hot cornbread. It was perfect for our New Years Day meal!!

Delicious and so easy! Will be making this again. I doubled the recipe, and only had one package of wild rice, so I also used a package of Zatarain's dirty rice as well. Worked great.

This was so easy to make, and the result was absolutely delicious. I will be making this every New Year's Day! I even froze some of the leftovers, and they reheated pretty well. I recommend pairing with some good cornbread!
