Teaching & Tattooed: July 2015

So I am back in Canada and brought a great recipe back! In Texas there is a soup that is very popular, Tortilla Soup! This is extremely delicious! My cousin gave me a recipe she had, this is super easy with almost all ingredients coming from cans. Super simple soup. I will give you the US recipe and my Canadian recipe.

You will need:

United States Version

1 can cream of potato

1 can cream of chicken

1 can chicken broth

1 can rotel

1 can ranch style beans

1 can corn (drained, if you want it less soupy)

Shredded chicken

Stredded cheese (optional)

My Canadian Version

1 can cream of potato

1 can cream of chicken

1 can chicken broth

1 can rotel *****

1 can Heinz chili style beans

1 can corn (drained, if you want it less soupy)

Shredded chicken

Old El Paso Taco seasoning hot and spicy

Stredded cheese (optional)

*****Rotel is not available in Canada. I brought some with me but I found some substitutes that may be close. I cannot say forsure as I have never tried them. Look at the bottom for the found substitutes.

Directions:

This soup is super easy to make.

1. First thing you need to do is cook your chicken breast. I cooked 2 large chicken breasts at 350 degrees celcius for 20 minutes with 2 tbsp of oil and salt and pepper. You could also buy a rotisserie chicken from the store.

2. Shred the chicken with 2 large forks until shredded into small pieces.

3. Open all the cans and add to a large pot on medium. Add the chicken snd taco seasoning to taste.

4. Heat until soup is hot.

To Assemble:

1. Place tortilla chips in the bowl
