Creamy Poblano Soup image

The first time I saw the soup, I thought No Way. It is green. But I did try it and now it is my favorite soup. It is on the spicy side, so mellow it with sour cream or remove jalapeno seeds if you want to.

I'm not a big fan of poblano peppers, but I decided to give this soup a try anyway. I was pleasantly surprised! The flavor was very well-balanced and the soup was very creamy. I will definitely be making this again.

This soup was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I can see how others might enjoy it. The flavor was good, but I would have preferred it to be a bit more mild.

This is my go-to soup recipe when I'm feeling under the weather. It's always so comforting and filling. I love the addition of the poblano peppers, which give it a nice smoky flavor.

This soup was just okay. I found the flavor to be a bit bland and the consistency to be too thin. I think I would have liked it better if I had added more spices.
