"Very low calorie soup that is good! I served the soup with grilled cheese sandwiches for the rest of my family as I think this a different version of WW 0 point soup but seems more filling than some of the other ones I have tried. The mung beans I used was a mixture of beans that haven't sprouted that I purchased at Whole Foods. Recipe source: local newspaper"

This soup is a great base for added flavours. As written the recipe is a wee bit bland. However, I added a tablespoon of rubbed cumin seeds, a dried hot pepper (chopped) from my summer garden and lemon pepper. I like the fact that the seasonings are left up to individual preferences. I also used bok choy and added some leftover chicken thighs cut up. Delicious!!

I made this as instructed and we found this quite bland. After sampling the soup I added 1.2 teaspoon each onion salt and ground cumin and cooked it for another half hour to allow the seasoning to meld and it added a bit of flavor. When I make this again I think I will sautee the onions and carrots in a bit of butter and continue with the rest of the recipe instructions adding the cumin and onion salt. Thx for sharing your recipe here with us.
