Notes
For the best results, use fresh, high-quality ingredients and adjust the seasoning to your taste. You can add toppings such as shredded cheese, sour cream, or chopped cilantro for extra flavor. If you prefer a spicier soup, consider adding a can of green chilies or a dash of hot sauce. This soup stores well, so feel free to make it ahead of time and reheat for a quick meal.
