For a vegetarian option, substitute the chicken broth with vegetable broth and omit the chicken. Consider adding diced bell peppers or zucchini for added texture and flavor.
If you like a thicker soup, you can blend about a cup of the soup before adding the cilantro and tortilla strips.
Adjust the amount of chili powder and salsa to suit your spice preference.
