Stacy's Notes - Made this May 2003 for a soup and sandwich night. Very quick and easy and tasted good. My can of chicken broth was 14oz so I added more water, but this made the soup a bit thinner than we would have liked. Next time, don't add water. Also next time may want to add a bit more salsa. Definitely a keeper, this is so quick to make.
