( besides my mamma ) Keep up the great work! love ur website n recipies! 😀

  3. I am so trying this this weekend! Can i double the recipe just by doubling the ingredients? Also, i will try this with jalapenos but will replace one with a habanero or thai chili 😀 hot hot hot!

    1. update : doubled the recipe, instead of using 4 jalapenos (doubled) i used 3 and replace the 4th with an orange habaneros. very tasty! i really liked, thanks for the recipe!

  4. Thank you for the recipe! I really enjoyed it. I had a red bell pepper and red onion on hand, so I used those. And loved it without the sour cream and whipping cream due to my eating plan. Yummy! i want to make another batch and share it!

  5. How does this soup hold up if I want to reheat. I would like to make this for a party ahead of time and reheat before serving. Is it better to add the sourcream and cream after reheating?

    1. Hi Swetha,

      You could try fat free or reduced fat sour cream or evaporated milk instead of heavy whipping cream. Just a word of warning…the reduced fat or fat free products do not taste the same as the regular ones (no brainer, right?).

  7. This soup can have frozen peas added before serving and garnishes can be toasted nuts, french fried onions or cilantro chopped finely. I add 1-3 tsps of sour cream or for richer add cocnut milk 1/2 the can. enjoy, Jyothi Mcminn
