Shrek Soup image

I made up this soup and named it after Shrek because it's chunky, has lots of green and is a little sweet and spicy! Please try to use the fire-roasted tomatoes and fresh spinach, they give such great flavor. They carry the Muir Glen brand at Whole Foods and Wal-Mart Supercenter. I hope you enjoy it!

I made this soup with ground turkey instead of beef. It turned out great and it's a healthier option.

This soup is a little bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend adding less chili powder if you don't like spicy food.

I'm not a big fan of mushrooms, but I loved this soup. The flavors were so well-balanced that the mushrooms didn't overpower the other ingredients.

This soup was terrible! The flavors were all wrong and the texture was mushy. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This soup was okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably wouldn't make it again.
