I make this all the time during cold weather. I add corn kernels, roasted red peppers, and black beans to mine. I also make my own tortilla strips to serve on top. They are so easy and taste better than what you get in the store. Just get whole corn tortillas and slices them in to quarter inch wide strips that are about two or three inches long. Then, get a pan of oil hot. Don't try to put the strips in cold oil. Fry them until they get gold brown, and then drain them on a plate with paper towels. If you want you can sprinkle a little sea salt on them while they are hot.
