  1. This was SOOO good! I used cheddar cheese soup instead of cream of chicke (to make vegetarian) and used a poblano pepper instead of bell. It was really good, but I felt like it was missing just a little something...I added just a dash of Hidden Valley Ranch Fiesta Ranch seasoning packet and that made it perfect! Not to mention it was SUPER easy!
     
  2. This made a very tasty soup- one we'll be making again! I made this in the slow cooker and added chicken breasts which I shredded before serving.
     
  3. I substituted fresh diced tomatoes for the canned and I used 2 ten ounce cans of mild green enchilada sauce. Even with these changes, my picky family really liked this. Perfect for a cold, dreary, rainy fall day. I loved that I could throw everything in the crock pot in the morning, and dinner was ready when I came home. The house smelled terrific too!
     
  4. Very good! My Dad said he liked it a lot. I thought it was a bit over cooked at 8 hours. I would like to try it at 4 hours. I think the veggies were over cooked at 8 hours. The onion was gone, couldn't find any left. the beans were starting to blow up. The flavor was really good. Understand my crock pot is a beast. Dad said it was a do over dish, meaning he liked it, I was iffy.. I think it is very good and will try it on a day where I won't be gone so long. <br/><br/>Look forward to mastering the veggie version, then I'll try it with some grilled chicken. Yum!
     
  5. Delicious delicious delicious! What a fantastically easy and tummy warming chowder! So glad I discovered this in October...it's going to be a staple this winter!

  2. Wow, this was great! I subbed a veggie cream soup for the cream of chicken, but otherwise left it unchanged. Delicious and creamy, even when made with skim milk. I used mild enchilada sauce this time, but next time I might try a hotter type. Thanks for sharing!
     
  3. I've made this several times now. My family loves it, especially my 11 year old. I sauteed the onions and peppers, because the 1st time they were too crunchy. I've also had to substitute creamed corn for the frozen corn. Delicious with or without cooked chicken. Thanks so much for the recipe!
     
  4. This is a good "chowder" but I felt as if it was missing something...so did my hubby. We think maybe some cumin or something like that to round out the flavor. I used pinto beans in place of the black beans as no one in my family is a big fan of black beans and I used two cans as I thought the soup needed a little more stuff. Overall, it does have a nice taste and it is very easy to put together. I think next time I will substitute Rotel tomatoes for the regular tomatoes and add a bit of cumin. Thank you for an easy weeknight dish!
     
  5. Very good! My son who is rather picky asked for seconds so that's a very good sign. I used onion powder instead of onions to make him happy and made my own enchilada sauce.
