Very easy and tasty chowder but the amount of sodium per serving gave me sticker shock. The next time I made it, I made some adjustments: only 1 can each of the condensed soups (I used cheddar cheese soup in place of the potato and reduced sodium for the CoC); 3 cups skim milk; 1 quart low sodium chicken broth; boneless, skinless chicken breasts (poached in the chicken broth). I added 8 oz of chopped fresh mushrooms and 3 more tortillas. Everything else was the same. Although it was thin the first day by the next day it had thickened up more. Really enjoyed it and plan to keep it in my soup rotation, especially with the cold weather coming on.

Love this recipe!! My family loves this recipe! My 4 year old loves this recipe!! I toast the tortilla strips in a skillet before I put them in the soup. Keeps them from sticking together and becoming quite so much like dumpling consistency.

This recipe was AWESOME! I made it for my colleagues at work and they loved it. We couldn't stop talking about it. I also added a can of Rotel, and served it with cilantro!!

This was very easy and good. I used uncooked chicken and cooked it up with some onion. I also added a little water to get the right consistency.

This soup was easy and delicious. I loved the flavors, and instead of Mexicorn, I subbed Chipolte Mexicorn and added a couple of dashes of cayenne pepper and it was great.
