SUSAN'S CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP
This soup tastes like a chicken taco or chicken tamale! A great change from regular chili. Also freezes well for lunches. You can substitute different beans for the garbanzos, such as black beans (drain and rinse), or kidneys, or pintos. This is a mild dish. Adding some chopped jalapeño peppers along with the Ro-Tel will increase the heat if you like.

Steps:
- Place water and chicken pieces in a soup pot and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer about 20 minutes, until broth is flavorful and chicken is cooked.
- Transfer to a crock pot and add the Ro-Tel, diced onion, drained corn, all the beans and liquid, and chili powder. Cook 6 hours on low power, or 3 hours on high power.

SUSAN'S TORTILLA SOUP
I don't like thick, or really tomatoey tortilla soup, so this is my style. Brothy with chicken and veggies, heat level to taste and topped off with avocado, tortilla chips, cheese and sour cream - and don't forget some pickled jalapeno slices!

Steps:
- CHICKEN: Bring 2-3 cans of broth to a boil in a medium pot, add the chicken (make sure it is covered with broth), turn heat to low and cook for 15 minutes, making sure the liquid doesn't bubble(simmer or boil) at all. After 15-20 minutes, cut into thickest part of chicken to ensure it is JUST cooked through. Reserve broth. I shred my chicken in my kitchenaid standmixer. Place whole drained but still hot chicken breasts into the work-bowl. Use the mixing paddle to shred the hot chicken in seconds. Set aside to use later.
- In a large pot, heat oil over medium high and saute onion for 2-3 minutes. Add garlic and continue to cook an additional 1-2 minutes. Add Cumin, Chili powder and cayenne if using. turn heat to medium and "bloom" the spices for 1-2 minutes over medium heat, stirring constantly.
- Add all the broth(don't forget the poaching liquid). Turn heat to high. Add the Rotel, corn, and zucchini, chopped green chiles and 1/4 c. minced cilantro stems. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-high and simmer gently for 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper if desired. Turn off heat and add shredded chicken.
- TO SERVE: Ladle soup into bowls and roughly break some tortilla chips into soup. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the chips. Garnish with chopped cilantro leaves, avocado chunks, a dollop of sour cream and pickled jalapeno slices if using.
SUSAN'S EASY TORTILLA SOUP
When I worked full time, I was too tired to spend a lot of time in the kitchen when I got home. I love tortilla soup and experimented until I had an easy recipe I could throw together after work. The rotisserie chicken makes it so easy.
