    This was a great,full flavored and satisfying soup. While it definitely has a great kick to eat, it is not so much to distract from the overall flavors. While easy to prepare, it definitely takes some time and patience.

    It was pretty good but not great. I agree that more seasoning is needed. I also would streamline the recipe to use boneless, skinless chicken thighs and just let them simmer in the soup.

    This soup is very good and healthy, BUT... made as it is written in the book, it's very bland and boring (Even though I omitted the rice which I also think will contribute to blandness! I suspect it'll taste better the next day). Cumin and chipotles are NOT enough to season this entire pot of soup full of veggies and beans and chicken! I added the following: 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon penzey's Galena Street seasoning, 1 teaspoon Mural of Flavor, 1 cube of low-salt chicken stock, a splash of each: red wine vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce. I also used to chipotle chiles instead of one (one left unseeded). The clinatro and lime at the end ARE ESSENTIAL. I will make this again, with my changes.

    Very good soup. I adapted slightly, used my own canned tomatoes, my own chicken stock for the water and bean liquid, but otherwise followed the recipe. It froze well too. Will definitely make again.

    Really delicious soup that's made with mainly pantry staples. It's not quick cooking, relying on a slow simmer to develop flavor, but it's worth the wait. It makes a huge pot but it tasted even better next day.
