Recipe View 3 mins Stir in the cooked rice and creamy peanut butter. Continue stirring until the peanut butter is fully dissolved and the soup is creamy and well combined, about 2-3 minutes. Serve hot.

For a richer flavor, consider using homemade chicken broth.
Feel free to adjust the amount of salsa to control the spiciness of the soup.
If you don't have cooked rice on hand, you can add a 1/4 cup of uncooked rice along with the chicken broth, keeping in mind that this will increase cooking time.
Garnish with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh cilantro for added flavor and visual appeal.
This soup can be easily customized with other vegetables such as bell peppers, carrots, or spinach.
