This chili-like soup is delicious and very low in fat. Salsa, cumin and chili powder gave it plenty of flavor while several canned items make it fast to throw together on busy nights. —Joni Voit Champlin, Minnesota

Correcting an error... Prep Time/Cook Time: All together was about 45 minutes for me.

This soup was quite delish, and quite spicy.

But I also used a good quality brand of chili powder, and a medium tasting salsa. At first I thought the 4 cloves of garlic would of been a bit much, but it wasn't. When saute'ing the vegetables, I added 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pan, plus I added another teaspoon just before adding the minced garlic. I like that this soup was high in fber, but I did add 1 tablespoon of Flax Seed for more added fiber. I also threw in 2 handfuls of frozen corn kernels just before bringing the soup to a boil. The added corn was a nice touch to the soup! Prep time for me was about 45 minutes. Joni, this soup was excellant. My hubby enjoyed it too! I look forward to making this soup often, as it's a keeper!

This was just ok...it was better the next day when reheated and served over rice with some Cheddar on top. I would only make again if I tweak it a bit.

I really like this soup. Its easy and tastes great!! For an even heartier meal, I fry up some ground beef with the onion and pepper.
