This recipe is quick, delicious, easy and healthy. I always make sure I have the ingredients on hand since my family loves it so much! It's easily doubled and is wonderful for leftovers.

Delicious! This is great to make for my lunches for the week. It's quick and easy. I make it Sunday evening and then separate into dishes and put in the freezer. Pull out one each morning for my much and ready to go! (The only thing I didn't like was the cheese mixed into the soup. Now I just leave that out or just put some on top before serving.)

Hey this recipe was terrific. I doubled it from the start. I sauted the onions and celery in oil. Through everything in the pot and simmered for awhile. Quite tasty and very health....thanks Kraft Kitchens

This is a fast and easy recipe that is very filling. So much like real chili, you don't even miss the hamburger. I used equal parts diced tomato (with spices), Kidney beans, and chicken broth. This will be a regular for me!

My husband just loves this soup. I make it without adding the cheese into the soup and just put it on the side so everyone can add their own on top. Every couple of months he asks me to make it for him.

I make this soup at least once every two weeks. We love it. I add green peppers and chilli peppers. Sometimes I add zuchinni.
