Chock-full of vegetables, thick with kidney beans and gently seasoned with garlic and anise, this soup typifies the Portuguese way of cooking. It needs only about 30 minutes to simmer.

Tasty & filling soup with a very subtle aniseed flavor. I omitted the olives as I don't care for them and added a little salt to make up for their absence. I found that the recipe made only 8 x 1.75 cup servings not 12 as suggested. Read More

Love it! I made it in a stock pot instead of a Dutch Oven. I also doubled the recipe. It is fantastic and I will make it again. I found it to be flavorful with the right amount of zing! I only had one tsp. of anise left in my container. I wasn't able to double that but it was still great! Pros: Filling and easy! Cons: None! Read More
