Soup was amazing! Used a dash more cheyenne, minced garlic, and 1/2 and 1/2. Also added chopped potatos to make it heartier. Tasted sweet at first then spicy after a few moments. Husband loved it!!!

This soup was great and so easy. My husband grilled some shrimp and we cut them up and added them. We also steeped the shrimp shells in the broth for 15 minutes and that gave it a good flavor. Will definitely make again and double the recipe.
