It came out great. I didn’t take a lick of the final product because I didn’t think the 1 cup of rice I used would have been so much. Next time I’ll use less so I can have more of the broth left, BUT IT WAS STILL a hit.

I used andouille sausage (not vegan), Rotel fire-roasted tomatoes, red & yellow peppers, and creole seasoning (2 tsp) along with 4 cups of broth. I also used brown rice, so it had to cook longer. The spice was nice. I will cook the rice separately in the future. I only gave four stars because I did have to adjust and without the spicy sausage and fire-roasted tomatoes it would have been a bit bland.
Ronald Lawson
I made this with beyond sausage and soy crumbles. Well liked by all!
Robert Campbell
It was okay. Didn’t have much flavor.
Bryan Combs
Tasty and easy recipe. I didn’t precook the rice though based on someone’s review and it didn’t fully cook in time so I recommend precooking.
Raymond Small
NO changes… it was good. Almost like the real thing.
Cody Cruz
Made this for the fam. I ommitted the miso paste (didn’t have it on hand) and I substituted vegan chicken strips for the seitan. Only problem is we wanyed more!
Michael Ingram
One of my favourite recipes. I use spicy vegan sausage and omitted the rice.
Joseph Lopez
Excellent! Limited groceries so I substituted Miso Soup for paste, balancing with vegetable broth, and had to skip seitan. Family loved it – it has become a repeat favorite!
Shannon Wright
Loved this recipe. Was in a hurry, so made it as is without reading reviews first. We love spicy food, so in the future I would add more Cajun spice plus red pepper flakes. I cooked the rice separately, rather than in the crock pot. Had home made seitan on hand which held up fine after four hours in the crock pot. Easy recipe and easy to customize to your own preferences.
Sara Brown
Great recipe. I cut the tomato sugesstion in half and substituted brown rice. I also added three diced jalapenos. The parsley garnish adds tons of flavor and compliments everything.
Jordan Bradley
Kind of meh. Did not really enjoy the textures or the overall flavor.
Andrew Maxwell
If you do not saute the onion first this will be unpalatable. Rule #1 with soup making: ALWAYS saute the onions otherwise you will have a bitter and very overpowering oniony flavor.
Kimberly Young
This is a very tasty recipe. I could get hold of some of the ingredients so used Quorn for both the sausages and chunks and it was gorgeous. I added the rice to the dish as per the instructions but would add a little more liquid next time. I would definitely make this again.
Vincent Duffy
Not sure if I did something wrong, but my family & I did not like this recipe.
Jennifer Pham
This was DELICIOUS with a few revisions. I used vegan spicy chorizo and chicken strips instead of the seitan and sausage. Also chose fire-roasted diced tomatoes, and subbed the bok choy for celery as someone suggested (but think both would work fine). Finally, I also cooked the rice for close to an hour. YUM!!!
Robert Mercer
excellent flavor and super easy. has quickly become a vegan favorite in our home.
Robert Williams
Nice meal for the winter. It’s not very spicy, though. Add more seasoning and some red pepper.
Michael Williams
Great recipe for the slow cooker! I followed everything as exact except I used homemade seitan sausages and added it near the end. I used brown rice, but it needed well over 1 1/2 hours to cook. I imagine it might take somewhat longer than 30 minutes with white rice (if that’s what the recipe is implying).
Sharon Douglas
I accidentally used spicy vegan sausage the first time – VERY spicy results I added diced apple to sweeten and help with the heat. But it was so good I made it a second time and loved the results using a milder smoked vegan sausage.
Billy Wiley
This was so easy and delicious! I wouldn’t change a thing!
