This vegetable soup is loaded with garden goodness, from zucchini and green beans to celery and potato, but it's the turmeric that gives it a tasty new twist. It's one of our favorite summer soups!&mdash;Edith Ruth Muldoon, Baldwin, New York

Delicious! The whole family loved it, without the usual “it needs something” comments. I did alter it to suit what was in the fridge: 3/4 c cherry tomatoes (unpeeled) instead of a large tomato, added 1/2 sliced acorn squash, 1/4 c chopped celery instead of celery leaves, plus I threw in several sprigs of fresh thyme, a rosemary branch and 1/4 cup of good sherry. The sherry was especially good. Also in a glass while cooking :)

Very tasty. I love the idea of using my veggies from my garden. Nice and fresh, smells great cooking on the stove.

Seriously anybody who doesn't read how people change/add/delete things from a recipe is losing out I get a lot of good ideas from people who share their changes they made. 

I loved this soup and only gave it 4 stars because I modified it and didn't stick with the recipe "as written".  I added a little orange pepper, garlic with the onion, chopped celery instead of leaves, 1/4 tsp. ground mustard, 1/4 tsp. lemon pepper seasoning, and sprinkled a little cooked bacon on top because I was hungry for bacon.  I also skipped the tomato paste.  I love recipes like this that allow the cook to interchange vegetables to personal preference and I agree that the turmeric gives it a great flavor and color!  I'll keep this one for sure!

this looks great and I'm going to try it today ... but I want to know if it will freeze well for enjoying this fall/winter????  I'll upgrade my review after trying the recipe ... :)

I made this yesterday, with a few alterations. I used canned whole tomatoes, in place of the fresh tomato/tomato paste...and chopped carrots in place of potato. Also added a bit of curry powder. Excellent soup! I fixed hot garlic bread and a cheese plate....cole slaw as a salad...

Great soup! Used canned petite tomatoes & frozen mixed vegetables in place of of tomato & green beans. Didn't have any turmeric but added minced garlic to onions. Delicious will make again.

We had this for dinner tonight. Delish!!!!

Delicious!  I made this soup for meatless Monday.  I followed the recipe to a T and It was a big hit. I will make this again and again.  Thanks!

I made this as directed except that I used chick peas instead of white beans, and I used fresh herbs from my garden for the seasoning.  Next time I will make it a little spicier but it was  delicious.  I like it cold on hot , humid summer days.

Great summer veggie soup!  I omitted potatoes and added  thin sliced carrots.  Then 10 mins before done added baby shell pasta.  Delicious!

I haven't tried the recipe. It looks good though.

 To become a good cook, you have to learn to expand on recipes to make them your own. Try it! The purpose of reviews is not to just say whether or not it was good, but to share ideas of how to modify/expand it. 

the soup was good. I always alter a recipe and love the reviews where people say what they have done to add to it. 

Made this in winter not summer as I had much of it on hand. Used great northerns instead of navy beans. Eliminated the green beans and added half a bag of C and W frozen mixed veggies.Also used a can of roasted diced tomatoes instead of fresh. Loved the turmeric too..will definitely make again!
