This soup is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either. I probably won't make it again.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out really watery. I think I'll try again with a different recipe.

This soup is really easy to make, but it's not very flavorful. I think I'll try adding some different spices next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out too thick. I had to add some water to thin it out.

This soup is a little bland for my taste. I added some salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.

I used frozen lima beans and it worked just fine. I also added some chopped carrots and celery.

This soup is a great make-ahead meal. I made it on the weekend and then reheated it for dinner during the week.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I used almond milk instead of regular milk. It worked great!
