This soup is so yummy. Add whatever veggies your family likes (sometimes I leave out the celery and carrot if I don't have it and the soup turns out just as good). I have even made this soup with leftover chili as the base instead of cooking the ground beef and veggies... Equally delicious... I serve with crushed tortilla chips, shredded cheese, thinly sliced green onions & sour cream, also some hot sauce... Also, I just learned how to make homemade totillas (thanks Juliann :) so I have been serving with those as well. Use what you have and like.. cornbread too??
