So easy, fast and delicious! I added fresh chopped tomatoes and skipped the cheese. It's so good you won't miss the extra calories!

This was a yummy, easy, quick soup. I omitted the chips and added 1/4 tsp. chili powder and 1/4 tsp. cumin, and sprinkled chopped fresh cilantro immediately before serving. For more color, I added a cup of canned drained diced tomatoes. I skipped the 2 cups of cheese and instead only sprinkled a handful of cheese over each bowl immediately before serving. For us this was more like 3 dinner-sized servings (not 7 servings).

Did I say this was a great soup, I'm saying it again! Tried another tortilla soup and wasn't thrilled, plus it took way more time to make than this recipe. Love it, love it, love it!

One of my favorites, so easy to throw together in a crock pot. I often add a can of rotel for some extra flavor

This is one of my most used and appreciated recipes I always have the ingredients on hand. I substitute light velveeta cheese for the cheddar. Love it!
