This one is a definite keeper. If you enjoy Mexican soups, surely you will enjoy this one. I followed the recipe throughout, which is unusual for me to do. And, the results were terrific as a soup. With the leftovers, am sure they'll taste great over cooked rice or noodles. I'll make this one again and again and again.
