The Black Eyed Peas always eat this soup when they are on tour. That previous sentence was a total lie. But I think they should eat this soup because they would love it. Here’s the deal. My tough food critic friend Rivka (who writes the amazing food blog Not Derby Pie – check it out!) tasted this soup and told me she became immediately addicted to it. Try it for yourself and see if you too develop a bad habit. In this context bad = good. This soup has a wildly unique flavor. Check out the ingredient list! We’ve thrown together a crazy number of spices to give this soup an almost meaty flavor. Almost, I say, as you and I know the secret truth about Soupergirl soups (there’s no meat…ssshhh…don’t tell….). This soup is simply awesome – the kind of soup you want to take home and introduce to your mom. Oh, also it’s really healthy but I promise you won’t notice.
Ingredients (in no particular order): black eyed peas, thyme, red pepper flakes (not too many! don't be scared!), Spanish smoked paprika, toasted ground cumin, tomato paste, mustard greens, rice, olive oil, sesame oil, onion, bay leaf, celery, garlic, salt, pepper
Soup type: Chunky

Just finished my very first soupergirl soup, and it happened to be this one! It was absolutely delicious … and nutritious … and that’s a very good combination! I did add hot sauce since I’m a hot mama & grandma & like things spicy!! I will definitely be getting more soup from soupergirl … regularly & often!! THANX!!
Very hearty and filling soup. Needed a dash of hot sauce for a little extra flavor. Great way to get your servings of veggies.
I also just finished my first soupergirl soup. It was fantastic. I made it less so by adding a tiny dollap of cheddar cheese and sour cream. Yummy.
Black Eyed Pea and Funky Greens was my first Soupergirl soup, too. This meal in bowl was full of flavor and very generous amounts of healthy ingredients. Simply put, it was fantastic and I recommend you try it. Now. I’ll wait.
Can’t wait to try more varieties.
Um yes, I LOVE this soup. It’s so frakin’ good! Very excited to have some more….
Delicious! My super picky 12 year old son loved it so much he said, “I’m really full, but I just want more of that soup!” Soupergirl, you have found a new loyal customer.
I hate to say I didn’t love this soup after so many glowing comments. It wasn’t my favorite. I should have tried the lemon juice or Tabasco, but I never think of those things in the moment. Very hearty and good, but not great (honestly, I missed the flavor you’d get from ham).
Cures what ailes ya. You’ll feel clean and pious after eating.
