I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out really mushy. The black eyed peas were completely overcooked.

This soup is way too spicy for me. I couldn't even finish a bowl.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out watery. I think I might have added too much liquid.

This soup is a bit bland for my taste. I added some cayenne pepper and garlic powder to give it more flavor.

I love this soup, but I find that it's a little too salty for my taste. I usually reduce the amount of salt by half.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this soup without the ham hock. It was still delicious.

This is one of my favorite soup recipes. It's so easy to make and always turns out delicious. I love the addition of the cornbread dumplings.

I've made this soup several times now, and it's always a hit with my family and friends. I love the smoky flavor from the ham hock.

This soup is a comforting and affordable meal, perfect for a cold winter day. I subbed vegetable broth for chicken broth and added some diced ham for extra flavor.
