I made the soup yesterday for our ( my wife and I) lunch. It was a great hit. so we finished the rest for dinner with a Santa Fe Salad. A great compliment.

As for the ingredients, I modified it a little. We didn't have any leftover chicken around so I cut up two boneless/skinless chicken breasts, fried it up and threw that in the pot. I doubled the amount of cumin, added a tsp of hot chili powder and added a tsp of Vanns Salt Exotica (available from Wegman's). Finally, I added a can of rinsed pinto beans to the pot for the final blend. The chili and the Salt Exotica gave it the needed boost in flavor and heat. The recipe was a great base.

Thanks,

Brian
