Once warm, serve, garnished with broken chips over the top. Freshly
chopped cilantro and a dollop of faux sour cream or vegan yogurt also make a nice garnish.

Chef's Note: Traditional, tomato-based salsas work best in this recipe.

AuthorNote: I've been making this soup for as long as I can remember.
Since it costs less than $1 per serving, it was a staple for me during
college and law school when I was broke. I still love this soup, however,
and make it anytime my fridge and pantry are looking pretty bare.
