Chicken Tortilla Soup Recipe
This chicken tortilla soup is so thick and hearty, it's a meal all by itself. Choose a mild, sweeter salsa for this chicken tortilla soup if the kids don't like spicy food. This chicken tortilla soup is also a great way to get kids to eat vegetables. I like to serve this soup with a thick, crusty French bread.Be sure to check out my slow cooker chicken tortilla soup recipe, too.
