    Which is wrong - the picture or the recipe ? The picture appears to have corn in it, but the recipe doesn't. I think I'll try it anyway but if the recipe is supposed to have corn I'm worried the nutrition info is wrong. - 9/13/14

    This was incredible just like it is. It is a little spicy. I don't like a lot of spicy food. But I do like this one. I will make it again. - 3/19/16

    I'd add corn to it and change the nutrition info.

    Yes, that picture is very misleading... :-/

    Only 4 servings? There are 6 cups broth, two cups if beans, one cup of tomatoes and 12 ounces of chicken. That's at least 10 cups volume. Would be better to figure one cup servings. - 4/20/21

    Sounded a bit too spicy for me so I reduced the spices and also left out the green pepper since I can't do peppers. It was still quite tasty. - 3/28/20

    I made a few small changes: I used olive oil, vegetable broth, chicken cooked separately (vegetarian onboard) and canned black beans drained and soaked overnight. The dish was very tasty. - 6/5/19

    HEY22BECKY there is a place where you can check on what food & calories there are in the soup. There is no corn & the calories of corn were not put in the nutrition tracker. Linda! - 11/19/16
