OK, OK, so I know this soup is outrageoously high in sodium content. That said, it was delicious! It was fast, easy and tasty. I used cooked chicken that I had on hand and followed the recipe without any variations. My husband liked it so much that he swiped my new Taste of Home soup cookbook that I haven't even had a chance to read through yet and tucked it into his lunch bag so that he could take the recipe to work tomorrow and copy it for his staff. You might try using the reduced sodium soups if sodium content is a concern.

Very easy and very good. It makes a lot and I have frozen some of it and used it later. My family enjoys it.

This recipe is very easy and the end result is so good! I followed most of the directions but changed the following:

-Instead of chicken breast strips, I used 2 cans of white meat chicken

-Instead of canned green chilies, I used frozen Hot green chili

-I added Salt, Pepper, and Garlic Salt for extra flavor

-I used a steamed corn mix instead of canned Mexicorn

-I didn't add tortilla strips because we prefer to eat them on the side

The end product was creamy, slightly spicier, and hearty!

This was so quick and easy, was a great meal on a cold night. The only thing I did different was I used left over chicken breast. Will make again for sure!
