Yum! Made this last night, my family LOVED it! My son ate his entire bowl, even my DD ate hers! I ended up omitting the corn, allspice and green pepper. I used dried minced onion, and I did NOT use the entire can of tomato sauce - it seemed like it would be too runny for us. One last note, I used beef flavored broth. Can't wait to have this again! Thanks Carianne!

The whole family said definite 5 stars! I made this for the vegan in the house but everybody loved it and it's easy to make after work as well. The only change I made was that I used a can of diced tomatoes, rather than crushed, simply because I couldn't find a 16-oz. can of crushed tomatoes. I did use vegetable broth to keep this vegetarian. This is very tasty and makes a nice big pot, which is welcome in our household, we love leftovers. Thanks so much Carianne for helping me keep my household vegan alive for a while longer!
