Would recommend, only after very drastic edits to the recipe! This was Bland, so had to add lots more seasoning. Added 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes, 1/2 tsp sriracha, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp coriander, and extra 1/2 tsp paprika, 1 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, an extra 1/2 tsp basil, then only 1 tbsp soy sauce. Now, much better, hearty soup, and huge portion!
