For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. Feel free to adjust the amount of chili powder and cumin to your preference. For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a finely minced jalapeño. Garnish with fresh cilantro or a dollop of sour cream before serving for an extra layer of flavor and freshness.
