The weather (here, at least) feels like autum. That means – SOUP!
This one is a favorite around our house. I’ve modified the original recipe from the Zolo Grill slightly to make it more points friendly. At eight, it’s not super light, but it’s filling. The cheese and sour cream do add to the points, so omitting those would help out, calorie wise.
But, honestly, THEY ARE DECLICIOUS with this dish. Also delicious? A warm tortilla for dipping.
