this recipe needs a little work. I added 2 x's the tahini and 2 tbs of sour crean because it was so thin. I also added some shallots and used a full fire rosted bell pepper. It was not good right off the stove but the next day after the flavors had a chance to marry it was nice. I would add some red pepper flakes next time. Read More

This soup is really yummy but the recipe as is tastes like hummus. I added red pepper flakes curry powder cumin and lime juice to taste which gave it a great kick. Read More

I LOVE this soup. Great for a vegan diet (sub vegetable broth for chicken broth). High in protein and delicious. First found it at Weight Watchers years ago and lost it. Have been looking for it ever since. Thank you for posting it! Read More

This is a rich and creamy soup, and almost has a nuttiness to it. I added both olive oil and chili oil as garnish and skipped the red pepper because I hate pepps. Seems like it would be great to soak up sourdough or soft pita bread. Read More
