"This soup is high in fiber and full of vegetables. It's so tasty you'll forget it's healthy! I found this recipe on the back of a refried beans can and added my own spin on it, and the result was absolutely delicious."

This was excellent, although the only way it could serve 6-8 would be in very tiny portions. It was too good for a tiny portion; and worked well as a meal (with a cheese quesadilla and small salad.)
