THIS MAKES A LOT OF SOUP SO HALF IT IF IT IS FOR ABOUT 4 PEOPLE. I halved the recipe but did not have any canned tomatoes so i used about 5 fresh tomatoes, it was AMAZING. Patrick and I loved this. if you want it more like salsa tasting, leave out the chili powder. i only added one tbs of it. so it was not too chili-like! We loved it!!!
