Tips:

  • Spice It Up: If you like a spicy soup, add a teaspoon of chili powder or a diced jalapeño pepper.
  • Choose Your Meat: Feel free to use ground beef, turkey, or chicken instead of ground pork, or even omit meat entirely for a vegetarian option.
  • Simmer for Flavor: Simmering the soup for at least 30 minutes allows the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Garnish Generously: Top each bowl of soup with a dollop of sour cream, shredded cheese, diced avocado, and chopped cilantro for an extra burst of flavor.
