I love this recipe! It's easy to make and tastes great! I leave out the black beans and add cilantro. I also use a rotissore chicken from the supermarket and just shred it into the soup instead of cooking my own. YUM!

This is a lot like the tortilla soup I make for my family on the stove. I didn't use the beans either. I added cilantro and used beef and chicken broth as that is what my stovetop version calls for. It was great and everyone ate very last drop!

Very easy and delicious! It makes a lot of soup, chock full of chicken and vegetables. It has a lot of corn flavor which is great. Made for PAC Fall 2009.
