This was pretty good considering how easy it was. I didn't have green peppers so I used celery instead. I also used diced tomatoes instead of Rotel and added some cayenne pepper and cumin powder for spice. I still thought it was lacking in something, so I also added garlic, pepper, and salt. I made it with chicken and left out the chips and put them in when serving so they wouldn't get soggy. I also just went ahead and added the cheese in the pot. Thanks for a good recipe to play with, Julie! (Next time I think I will omit the cream of mushroom soup and replace with cheese or nacho cheese soup!)I like the creaminess this soup had; I'm a big fan of tortilla soup, so I've tried many and made alot, this is pretty good considering you mainly open up cans and put them together!
