Description

I enjoy both Cajun and Mexican cuisine, and this rich, elegant soup combines the best of both. I serve it with a crispy green salad and a glass of white wine for a simple but very special meal. —Karen Harris, Castle Rock, Colorado

This is delicious. Very different and very easy to make. Definitely a keeper. Served over rice. Made exactly two bowels for my husband and me with no leftovers. If you plan to make this for friends, I suggest you double or triple recipe

This soup was delicious! I will definitely make it again.

Absolutely Wonderful. I made this tonight for dinner ( I doubled the batch ). My husband ate 2 BIG bowls and then picked out of the pan. We truly enjoyed this. I would truly recommend this.

Ive made it twice now for my husband and I and he said it again, this is the BEST soup/meal that you can make! I put it over a small bed of Jasmine rice, it was very filling! The avocado and cilantro is highly recommended.

I used 1 lbs. of mudbugs instead of shrimp and doubled the recipe. Out of this world great.

Very easy, excellent taste. I make the recipe as written and not make any adjustments.

Very tasty & easy

Fantastic!!! Made the other night and was very pleased and so was the family. Served over a bed of rice though, bulked up the meal a bit. Will be making again for sure.

Made this last night and I LOVED it. I'm a total shrimp lover and this was a delight. I used regular whipping cream and precooked shrimp (added shrimp after mixing soup with sour cream mixture) and it turned out great. I also used a suggestion I read on this page and used guacamole instead of avocado and I'm glad I did. Every flavor complemented the other. Will definately make this again.

Made soooo many changes not sure review is fair enough but we did like it. Don't like cumin, coriander or avocado so left out entirely. Used only 2 tsp chili powder due to other reviewers but wasn't spicy at all. I added some corn and substituted 1/2 n 1/2 for the cream (plenty creamy), bay scallops for the shrimp and parsley for the cilantro because it's what I had on hand. Will possibly try bacon in with the onions next time to give it a little flavor boost since I chose to omit some of the other ingredients. Will make again.
