Since that darn groundhog predicted 6 more weeks of winter, I thought it was a perfect time for another homemade soup recipe before Spring hits. This Chicken Tortilla Soup is so creamy. It’s a snap to make too since canned soups make up the base. There’s very little prep and chopping time involved with this one.
You can make this tortilla soup as mild or as hot as you like. I used mild salsa in mine and it still had a bit of bite to it. If you like more heat, you can use medium or hot salsa instead.
