Red Lentil Soup with Lemon
A nice addition to your soup, try red lentil soup with lemon. Yes, just spritz some lemon on it and the citrus brings out more of the flavor. You could try lime also. Another thing I love to do, add a dollop of creme fraiche or sour cream. You could also use plain Greek yogurt. This will add some creaminess to your soup.

Chorizo soups are also fabulous with grated cheeses. Take your choice. An Italian parmesan. A crumbly queso fresco, which means 'fresh cheese'. This is a Mexican cheese made from cow's or goat milk. Even a drizzle of heavy cream would be fabulous.
