"This is a very flavorful soup. I made exactly as written, except didn't have any celery leaves so I didn't use them. I am always a bit leary of adding wine to dishes, as it leaves a taste I'm not particularly fond of, but I did use a dry red wine in this, and it actually enhanced the other flavors in the soup. I particularly liked the flavor of th..."

"This was very easy to make and very tasty - I used a prepared cole slaw package of cabbage and cut the sugar by half, which gave it a little bit of sweet and tart together with the vinegar. I served this as a side (and a topping for hamburgers. Next time I think I'll add some thinly sliced onion and add this to the relish tray. Thanks for postin..."

"OMG - are these divine or what ?? I made these for our annual "Thanksgiving luncheon" at the office, and all the ladies wanted the recipe! For me, a little labor-intensive due to the three different "assemblies" but sooooo worth it! These are delicious. DD, the brownie expert, even said so. The only thing I did different was I made these gluten-f..."

"I made modified versions of this recipe based on our personal likes and dislikes; I actually made 2 separate versions. First, since I had a case of Velveeta & shells, I used 2 packages of this instead of spaghetti. I cooked the chicken as directed, and then cooked the noodles in the broth. For one version, I added rotel tomatoes (but no tomato sau..."

"This is a delicious soup - I made as written except for 2 things: I used a mix of brown and wild rice and where is said to discard the solids (veggies, I chopped mine super-fine and added them back to the pot. This did have a little bit of a bite from the pepper, and I even used a milder white pepper - but I didn't mind the pepper. You might mig..."

"What a delicious soup base. I cut the recipe in half and made enough for 6 quarts. I made the base as written (except I skipped the sugar and had no tomato puree in the house, so used canned tomatoes instead. I added 1 diced red bell pepper, 3 stalks celery, 2 cans diced tomatoes, 1.5 cups diced carrots, 1/2 teaspoon white pepper, 1 teaspoon sea ..."

"This was REALLY tasty comfort food! Easy to make too! I used grass-fed beef, 1 extremely large green pepper and 1 whole medium onion, and I opted for 3 large cloves of fresh garlic instead of the garlic salt. This was plenty for our meal as I didn't want to serve 15! I added 1/4 teaspoon white pepper and 1/2 teaspoon sea salt for our tastes, and I..."

"This was really easy to put together, and we really enjoyed it. I followed the recipe as written and cooked on low about 6 hours (overnight. There was not much broth at the end of cook time, so I would call this more of a stew than a soup. Chunky and full of flavor, I served this with topped with sour cream and tortilla chips. Comfort food with t..."

"Very good and very easy - which was great for a busy weeknight dinner. I used grass-fed beef, gluten-free flour, and GF brown rice noodles. I skipped the mushrooms as I can't eat them but I don't think it detracted from the flavor one bit! Creamy and very flavorful - I mixed the noodles directly into the sauce instead of serving it on top. The fam..."

"Delicious soup! Simple but it had loads of flavor. I followed the directions as written, except for the celery because the celery thief "took it all to work for snack" ! But it did not detract from the flavor. I will make this soup again - it was quickly prepared and it's great the next day. Thanks for posting - made for your 2012 Football Pool W..."
