Very good recipe. My soup turned out to be more of a thick stew-type soup with great flavor - love the chili powder (even added some fresh cracked pepper for more kick). I did not add the butter - didn't need it. Thanks for submitting. Will make many more times

This recipe is very tasty. The onions and peppers give it good flavor and the little bit of chili powder gives it pep. I will definately prepare it again.
