Great Soup! The instructions are written clearly and the ingredients are all things I usually have on hand. I added some yellow peppers and some frozen corn kernels. And I used Ancho Chili Pepper rather that a fresh chili pepper. I topped each bowl with a small dollop of sour cream and a few crushed torilla chips as suggested. I served it with cheesy corn muffins. And my whole family enjoyed it. I do not think it would serve 6 as 3 adults and 2 children (6 and 3) ate every drop! It was that good! Thanks for sharing this recipe Tish.

    This was so very good. The only thing that I will change is double the recipe. This went over so well we are ready to have it tonight. Wonderful and fun to make. Thank You

    This soup is absolutely outstanding. I truly think it deserves 10 stars. My mom makes the best soup and she tried this and loved it (she usually says it would taste better if you added....). Ha!! she was speechless (that was a first lol!)

    This was soooo good! I would give it 10 stars if I could! I've been trying to incorporate more vegetarian meals in our diet and I must say that with this soup I did not miss the meat. I used Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce and kidney beans. Thanks for a new favorite!

    Yumm!!! We were snowbound today and I was out of peppers, added a jar of vlasic roasted red pepper stackers instead. Delicious! Even my fussy teenager loved it.

    Excellent soup - my husband didn't even whine about the lack of meat!! I followed the recipe exactly but I must confess that I "forgot" the BBQ sauce AND I added all 3 kinds of beans. Thanx Tish!

    Wow! Was this ever good!! I forgot to serve it with the sour cream until we were almost done but then tried it and like it even more. It tamed the pepper a bit. Made a great meal with cornbread.

    I've been a fan of Moosewood recipes for years, but this one had somehow escaped my notice. What a loss! I've made this recipe now about a dozen times in my crock pot. I've alternated the beans depending on my cupboard and will often incorporate four different varieties. I do add a couple of cups of vegetable stock and corn by popular request. Shortly before serving I customoarily stir in a good portion of pre-cooked elbows. The pasta adds a bit more substance and also serves to thicken the soup. We've garnished with greek yogurt, chopped green onion and even grated cheese. This soup's our idea of comfort food!

    This is a great recipe...I barely followed the directions (I just dumped everything in the pot w/out sauteing) and it still turned out really well. Will keep this one.

    A perfect pantry meal as I always have beans and tomatoes in the cupboard and peppers and celery in the fridge. I added some extra liquid as I loved slurping up the flavorful broth. Had to add a little orange pepper to the red to get the right quantity. Also skipped the tortilla chips to make it fit the WW Core program. Just delicious.
