Lovely recipe I added some red pepper and put a dollop of cottage cheese in the soup bowl. Love the cilantro. I didn't puree half of the beans . Thanks Sue for a lovely lunch -
Quick, easy and nicely seasoned. This is one of those recipes that I can make anytime cecause I always have the ongredients. I made this just as written, using the chopped cilantro garnish. You can't go wrong with this easy and healthy soup. Thanx! -
My mother and I made this last night (I'm sixteen- still an apprentice chef!) with a few alterations, to make enough for our family of six. It was DELICIOUS, had an authentic Mexican taste, and goes wellwith rice. TIP: putting tortilla chips in this soup makes it IRRESISTABLE- you may have to ration it! :) -
I fixed this for supper tonight and it was delicious. Having all the ingredients on hand made it easy to make. :) 5 stars for sure Sue L.

I added some lime juice, sázon, and green onions which enhanced the flavor a lot. This is a great recipe and very easy to make!
