Spicy Tomato and White Bean Soup image

This is the fastest weeknight meal I've ever made. Less than 20 minutes and dinner was on the table! Got this from Cooking Light, so it's quite healthy but very filling and flavorfull. This is an excellent starter soup as well so you can always add shredded chicken, ground turkey, tofu, etc. If you can't find a poblano, just use a jalapeno or anaheim chili. The tortilla chips are just served on the side and they are a must for dipping into the soup. Sometimes we don't even use a spoon at all!
