My husband and I both loved this soup, but I must admit it was a little on the spicy side even for me. The chili powder is super strong in this recipe! Next time I make this I would probably only add one tablespoon of chili powder. It can be a little chocking. If you don’t like spicy, then this is not a recipe for you unless you tweak it a bit. What I loved about this recipe is it’s filling, and it’s low in calories. 86 Calories per serving*
