CREAMY CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP



Creamy Chicken Tortilla Soup image

A restaurant in my town had the best creamy chicken tortilla soup, but they closed up and I have not been able to find a great tortilla soup since. I decided to create my own based on recipes that I had tried in the past. My husband couldn't get enough of it, so I knew it was a hit. Optional toppings: sour cream, shredded Cheddar, and avocado.

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 (14 ounce) cans chicken broth

1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried cilantro
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
1 bay leaf
1 pound cooked chicken, shredded
⅔ cup drained and rinsed canned corn

CREAMY CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP



Creamy Chicken Tortilla Soup image

I had to write this down fast before I forgot how I came up with this. I got a tip from a can of refried beans to use it as a base for soups. I love tortilla soup but it can sometimes be loaded in calories. Using refried beans not only thickens the soup, but saves calories on any added cheese or tortillas used to do the same. Taking a few cans out of the pantry makes very quick, easy, and delicious soup. Check out my vegetarian version which is just as yummy. A great way to use up the crushed up tortilla chips at the bottom of the bag.
