Cheesy Tortilla Soup

Last night we had this soup along with "do-over" chicken tacos.  It was great.  The only thing that I will do differently next time is that I will not cook it in the crock pot all day.  It doesn't need that long to cook.  It really only needs to cook for a couple of hours, so the stovetop is perfect.  But here is the recipe....

Cheesy Tortilla Soup

2 cups milk
1 can mexicorn, drained
1 can nacho cheese soup
1 4oz can of diced green chilis, undrained
1/2 diced onion
1/2 diced bell pepper
1 can diced tomato
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp cumin
1/4 oregano
Tortilla chips, crushed

*Mix the first ten ingredients together.  Cook on medium for about two hours, stirring frequently.
*You can add chicken, turkey or fish to this recipe if you like.  Add that cooked meat about half way through the cooking process.
*Serve with tortilla chips on top.

You can also serve with sliced avocado and sour cream.


This is a very easy recipe and doesn't take long to put together, or long to cook.  As I said, the crockpot wasn't the correct cooking vessel for this soup.  But when I make it next time I will do it on the stovetop.  Happy cooking and enjoy your food!!
