In reply to Lindsay. That's an impressive improvisation without fajita leftovers! I love this idea and I bet the chorizo gave it such a wonderful flavor. Thanks for sharing!

In reply to Lisa. @Lisa, I made rice and ladled the soup right over the top. I bought beans and intended to add them but forgot at the last minute :)

Thanks for the recipe inspo! I made this last night and it was delicious. Some changes to make it work for me: I didn't have leftover fajitas, but wanted to infuse the flavor profile you talked about. I used 1 part Roasted Red Pepper Soup, 1 part chicken stock + 1 lb. chorizo instead of seasoning + used a pressure cooker after sautéing veggies. This built in a ton of flavor. The chorizo gave it a fair amount of heat, but it wasn't overwhelming. Also I appreciated the tip about not overblending. I used a hand held blender (my Mom calls this tool, "The Daily?") and I got the consistency just right!

In reply to Lisa. You can definitely do that. If you plan on blending it at all, i'd add those in afterwards.

Has anyone tried adding black beans or rice to this?
