This recipe is a waste of time and ingredients. The soup turned out watery and tasteless.

The Fontina Vegetable Crab Soup was a disappointment. The crab flavor was overpowered by the vegetables, and the soup was too thin.

I found the soup to be a bit bland. I added some extra salt and pepper, and it improved the flavor significantly.

I followed the recipe to a T and the soup turned out amazing! The fontina cheese added a luscious creaminess that balanced the briny crab and the vegetables provided a nice contrast in texture.
