    I made this soup yesterday. It was great, as I added many more seasonings to it then this recipe called for. I did not like that when I went to eat it today all liquid was gone. I am curious to see what happens with the portion that I froze when I am ready for it. - 1/27/09

    Hi, Thank you for the great review. My thinking is that you probably used too many noodles and not enough water. This recipe is great to play around with. You can add more water or chicken stock and not change the flavor. When you heat up the frozen portion, add extra water. It should be just right!

    So good and so versatile! I did cream of celery instead of mushroom soup and also added bay leaves. I made it in the crock pot while on my lunch hr and came home to an amazing soup after work! Thanks for sharing your recipe, will be making it again! - 3/5/13

    I used my homemade veggie broth, cream of chicken soup (I didn't have any mushroom) green beans, onion and pepper mix (frozen), and baby corn. This was great!!!

    This was very good and I love how adaptable a recipe it is. I served it with red. fat crescent rolls and salad. This is a keeper! - 2/17/09

    Hi, thank you so much for the great review! I love it's adaptability as well. I make it slightly different each time. The only constant for me is the Turmeric - I think it is my "secret" ingredient! :)

    I made this for Sunday lunch today and all the family raved about it, they thought it was fabulous, best soup in a long time. They wouldn't believe where I got the recipe. Some more please Sharon! - 2/1/09

    Hi, thank you SO much for the great review! Have you tried anything else in my cookbook/recipe box? If you like fish, the Wonderful Whiting is ....well....wonderful and the Tilapia Feast is really good as well. The traditional breakfast casserole which I lightened, is quite good too. Again, thanks
