I was really excited to try this soup, but I was disappointed. It was very watery and the flavor was very weak. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I won't be making this soup again.

This soup was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. I found it to be a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra seasonings and it helped a bit, but it still wasn't my favorite soup.
