    The flavoring was very delicious, but similar to reviews before, it was way too thin! I would also recommend to cut the broth down to 4 cups!

    Really tasty and just the right amount of spice. I also cut the chicken broth down to 4 cups. Tasted as good as Panera's!

    I was a bit disappointed that it was so thin. I even added a third can of beans! I will be doubling the amount of beans. I added heat to it as well. I will make it again, but I will be making changes to it so my family enjoys it more.

    I was very pleased with this soup as it had the flavor profile I was looking. I did omit the cayenne and used only 2 teaspoons of cumin because I don't like a lot of heat. It was a crowd pleaser to say the least! Quick, simple, and delicious says it all.

    I made this with shrimp tacos with salsa verde. It was really good. I omitted the bell peppers because I dont like them and thought 6 cups of chicken stock would be too much so I added maybe 2 cups. It came out really good! Great mexican night.

    I first made this soup about 1 1/2 months ago, and have made it at least 3 times since then. My boyfriend requests it all the time! Like everyone else suggests, I put 3 cans of black beans and 4 cups of stock. Then, I blend the whole thing to make it nice and smooth. It is always a crowd pleaser, especially in the winter season.

    This soup is delicious, and very easy to make, but definitely on the spicy side! I even cut the cumin down to 2 teaspoons, but next time I think I will only use one, as well as cut down on the cayenne pepper. It's also not as thick as I would like it - I used 4 cups of stock, maybe only 3 1/2 is needed. I added a handful of chopped cilantro for some added color and taste, as well as some salt and pepper.

    I made this at college, and it was very inexpensive to make. As everyone suggested, I added more beans (3 cans and reduced the chicken stock to 4 cups. I didn't think it was too spicy the way it was written.

    Really really great soup, is always gone, no matter how much I make. The only problem is it calls for way too much water, so either reduce the water or double the beans. The first time I let it cook forever just to reduce the liquids.
