  • If you don't have a slow cooker, you can make this soup in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Just be sure to stir the soup frequently so that it doesn't burn.

  • When you're ready to serve the soup, reheat it over medium heat until it's warmed through.
  • Garnish the soup with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, avocado, cilantro, and crumbled tortilla chips.
