    This is in response to Stefka, I calculated the recipe with 93% lean turkey and it came out to 6.6 g of fat and 228.8 calories. Have not made it yet but will soon. - 3/11/13

    This soup is fantastic for anyone on a diet. It is so hearty for a "diet soup" I have made it many times- always do a double batch. I think it is best done with ground beef. - 2/21/16

    I've been eating this soup at least 10 days a month. I love it. i also got it from the magazine that you mentioned. I'm glad that you submitted it, because I wanted to include it in my menu planner. - 2/18/13

    Can the fat count be right?! I had this last night - excellent, by the way - but then saw the 13.2 g of fat. This can't be from the ground turkey and teensey bit of olive oil, so maybe it calculated wrong? - 1/4/12

    I saw this in WW magazine and made it today. It was very very good. Im not a fan of cumin or mushrooms and didn't have any cilatro so left them out. Did add a little basil. Will make again, - 10/18/11
