Fantastic - easy to spice up or leave creamy and bland. A great warm weather dish to make ahead. Could serve these 'shooter' style for a party.

Fantastic and so simple! I substituted the sour cream with Greek yogurt for less fat an added protein the second time I made it and it was just as great!

I usually don't care for cold soups, but I added a couple of garlic cloves and a little hot pepper and yummy!
