Chicken Queso Soup

This is a very tasty and spicy soup recipe I got from Lynn's Kitchen Adventures.  With the cumin and ground red pepper it is pretty spicy but I like spice so it was perfect for me.  I didn't give this to the kids because of the spice and this isn't really something they would eat anyway.
