I made this with one red and one orange bell pepper. I topped with crunchy tortilla strips. Wow. Must try and a great no meat week day add!

A very satisfying soup and quick to throw together. I will definitely make it again. Don't skip the lime and yogurt or sour cream, they add wonderful creaminess and complexity.
