  1. I made this recipe, with a bunch of extras, and really enjoyed it! i replace the water with vegi stock, the pintos with kidney beans (all i had), the jalepenos with some red pepper flakes (again all i had), and it came out wonderful! the simmering time really makes the difference. sorry i changed so much, but i was too lazy to go out and get those extra ingredients. this was a wonderful lunch/dinner!! i feel i can still rate this, because the base idea was a very tasty one, thank you!
     
  2. Excellent, Tish! This was so easy, and the flavors blend nicely. I used pickled jalapenos because I didn't have fresh, and chopped up the tomatoes (only because I don't like big chunks.) I thought of adding more spices because this recipe looked so simple, but I'm glad I didn't...it's perfect.
     
  3. Really quick and simple soup, with such a good flavor! I used chicken broth instead of water and cilantro instead of parsley. Thanks for sharing!
     
  4. So easy and so yummy! Honestly, I thought it might be a little bland, but it wasn't. It's a mild-flavored soup with a little kick, but certainly not bland at all. This is one of those soups that I can just whip up because I usually have all the ingredients. Thanx for posting!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Las Vegas. I was lucky enough to run into Recipezaar around Nov. 2000 and got hooked quickly. I am a cookbook collector and have been collecting recipes for as long as I can remember. My DH had to build in shelves for all my cookbooks! I like to dabble with OAMC and for a few years hosted the Budget/OAMC forum with some great people over there. Even though I don't work in the forum any longer I've set up a lot of cookbooks for the purpose of OAMC and stretching food that might be helpful. Please feel free to check them out! I go on food jags and cooking jags! Please come say hi to me and chat on facebook. I currently host a blog for saving money through finding deals and coupons if you are interested. Most of the time I try to cook and have a good dinner on the table but I'll be honest enough to say there is still fast food occasionally in the budget! I have had such wonderful support here whenever I need it. Thank you all for being here! Just a quick note on how I rate recipes: ? 5 stars - This recipe is perfect. (My DH is truly a critic and doesn't give 5's unless it's amazing) I would recommend it to others and would definitely make again. ? 4 stars - This recipe was good but I would change something in it next time. ? 3 stars - This is a recipe I would not make again but it was OK ? 2 stars - This recipe I would not make again and we didn't like it at all ? 1 star - This recipes did not work out/taste was unappealing and wouldn't make again
