This is a delicious, warm, creamy soup that calls for little prep time and little cook time. Great for when you need a warm meal fast. I usually use John Soules pre-cooked chicken fajita meat, but the site would not recognize it, so I had to change it to something similar. You can also use 1 can of Rotel instead of 2 if you don't like things too spicy.
