I like it, but had to make a few changes. I too used about half the recommended amount of water. I also added a dash of cayenne pepper because I wanted more heat. I also added the zest of one of the limes and more lime juice. So it was good but the given recipe needed some work.

I thought this soup was just ok. I thought 5.5 cups of water was way too much and I also thought that the soup was a little bland. It needed a little something extra that just wasn't there.
