Notes

I made this with the addition of 2 serrano chiles and used medium green enchilada sauce instead of mild red. It didn't seem very spicy when hot from the crockpot, but after about 2 days in the refrigerator it had a solid bite. Wondering how spicy the cups that i froze are going to be.

The mango and avocado are a a pain to slice, but add lots to the soup and shouldn't be skipped.
