"This is the kind of recipe that can be varied as long as the soup is included and enough other liquid is added. It can be jazzed up with other veggies, and red and green pepper add color. For a Tex-Mex version, add canned chopped chiles and chopped black olives, chili powder and cumin. Although the cheese can be left off, it tastes better with it."
