It's hard to review this recipe because I made so many changes to it. I followed a previous reviewer's advice and added black beans and corn to the soup. I felt that without adding these ingredients, the soup would be rather plain. I also added some minced garlic. To really liven up the soup I put out several toppings, including shredded monterey jack cheese, fresh cilantro, avocado, fresh lime juice, and a homemade salsa made of jalapeno peppers, cilantro,tomatoes, garlic and lemon juice. These toppings really gave an extra punch to the soup. I did heat tortilla strips in the oven to put in the soup, but when my family ate it again as leftovers we just used tortilla chips and they worked just as well. I gave the recipe 3 stars, but if you use the above changes it is an outstanding recipe.
