This is such a GOOD recipe! I will warn you that, by itself, it isn't a very pretty dish but the optional add-ins are what make it look REALLY appealing!

This soup really hit the spot on a cold Wisconsin afternoon. I stirred in a can of Rotel with chilies and served with a handful of shredded Monterey jack cheese and a dollop of sour cream- Oh so good! I loved the heat from the cayenne and the smokiness of the cumin. I thought maybe sliced green onion would be pretty as a garnish. This was so easy to make as I keep left over diced chicken in the freezer. Thanks for a keeper! Made for PAC Spring 2011.
