Pantry Chicken Tortilla Soup image

A quick and easy soup that assembles from ingredients you probably have in the kitchen right now. This is a very flexible recipe for using up leftover "bits." Black or kidney beans work best, but any canned bean will work. You can use frozen corn if you prefer, and sometimes I use a small can of corn and a can of hominy. If you can not find chipotle salsa, any variety will work with the addition of 1/2 tsp of ground cumin. But, the chipotle salsa will add the rich smoky flavor that says "cooked all day." Updated to reflect correct amount of chicken stock.
