It was a good, simple, basic soup - if you read up on the soup diet it is intended to be the basis of a variety of soups. For instance one day you could add chicken, corn, black beans and mexican spices like cumin and cilantro to make it mexican. Also supposed to be good with shrimp and turkey. - 1/3/14
