Chicken Tortilla Soup

Novemeber is a few days away and with the holidays come cooler weather, my favorite!  So when the weather gets cooler I look forward to making lots of different soups.  Today, in preperation for tomorrows cold front, I made some Chicken Tortilla Soup and it was scrumptious!  I urge everyone to make it, as it is so easy my dogs could put it together.

Chicken Tortilla Soup


1 Rotissere Chicken - shredded
2 cans Low Sodium Chicken broth
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can green chiles
1 can diced tomatoes 
1 can black beans - drained and rinsed
1 10 oz bag frozen corn
1 Tbsp chopped garlic (the kind in the jar is best in this recipe)
1 Tbsp cumin


All you do is combine everything and simmer, it can be ready in 30 min or 3 hours.  The longer you let it simmer the more flavorful it will be.  If you like it with more of a kick to it you can replace the tomatoes and green chiles with a can of Rotel.


You can even do this in the crockpot on low and let it cook all day, its up to you.


Garnish with fresh Cilantro, avocado and corn tortilla strips and enjoy.
