Great base
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I love this recipe and I use it as a base (changing a few things). I use just a PINCH of curry, add carrots, celery and only... 4 cups broth. YUMMY. Comes out great every time. Next time I think I'm going to add some fresh ginger.Read more

Easy and Delicious!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I've made this soup for myself and recently I made it for my boyfriend. He absolutely loved it! It's very simple to make,... just chop everything up throw it in a pot and let it cook. Once it's cooked--blend. How much easier could it get? I did add to the soup 2 bay leaves and a chicken bouillon. It's a perfect cold day soup. Read more

Meh...

Not a bad recipe, but the prep wasn't worth the end product. Fairly bland overall.

Delicious
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this soup for myself and my husband. I added 1/4 c. chopped celery and 1/4 c. chopped carrots when I added the onion... and garlic. Instead of the yogurt I added a teaspoon of mascarpone cheese to each serving. The soup had a velvety consistency and was absolutely delicious. I will be making this again soon.Read more
