"I haven't tried this soup yet but it looks delicious. I might leave out some of the herbs and spices but overall it seems pretty tasty.
The amount of ingredients is a bit intimidating but if I wanted to try something simpler, I would improvise or find a quicker recipe.

For all those griping about the fat or the amount of ingredients and giving it negative reviews without trying it, you should try it before knocking it.
If you don't like something, leave it out or find a different recipe more to your liking. There's nothing that says this recipe is fat free or low calorie, etc. Just because many people are trying to cut down on fats or what have you, doesn't mean that no one is ever allowed to post or make recipes with such things in them.
Try searching for an "easy" recipe, or a "low fat/calorie/etc" recipe if you want one like that. Internet searches are quite amazing these days."
