My Pantry Soup

I came up with this one night, when really hungry and craving something with cream of mushroom soup in it...made this huge pot of soup, took it to work, and some of my co-workers said this soup helped them feel better (was during cold and flu season). You can adjust the spiciness in this soup, though the spicier the better at clearing sinuses.
