 Really good BASE for Amazing Tortilla SoupMay 01, 2011
By maximum verbosity
This is impossible to find around here now and paying this price online is way out of our budget. But when we do come across a package, it's one of the best tortilla soups I've ever made - WITH my creative additions :) I use this as just a base. Standing alone, I don't think it's that tasty.
Here's what I do: I mix the soup according to the directions (omit 2 cups of water, you're going to replace it later) on the package and put it in my crockpot on med or high, depending upon how much time you have. The longer you cook it, the more flavor it gets but if you cook it too long on high, the liquids will evaporate and then it just tastes bad.
THEN I add:
3-4 large boneless/skinless chicken breasts
one can of Ro-Tel
one 8oz can of stewed tomatoes (with the juice)
one can of chicken broth (this replaces the cups of water you left out originally)
Let this cook to on med for about 6 hours, or until the chicken breasts are done. Remove the chicken and shred it, then drop it back in. At this point, add in:
one 8 oz container of sour cream
8 oz bag of shredded fiesta cheese blend, taco cheese blend (or whatever kind of cheese you like that includes cheddar)
Stir everything up until you're sure the sour cream and cheese is mixed in. Put the lid back on, turn the crockpot up to high and let it cook for about another 30-45 minutes, depending on how hot your crockpot gets. Once the "broth" is a creamy, smooth texture, it's done!
Serve in bowls with fresh tortilla chips or strips on top (or on the side to dip as you eat). This makes a very creamy soup, too soupy for dip, but a nice thick filling soup that is pretty spicy (the Ro-Tel makes all the difference).
Tastes GREAT heated the next day, freezes OK, but can tend to get a little watery that way, so I don't really recommend it.

 DELICIOUS!Jul 16, 2008
By Patricia Smith
Had this for dinner this evening and it was a hit. Served it over tortilla chips. It had just the right amount of spice without being too hot. I think next time I will add a can of chicken to it to meat it up a little but it really didn't need anything more.

Surprisingly delicious!Jan 05, 2011
By Gardenia
Very very yummy! I'm impressed with technology---how could they make a soup so good come out of a dry bag? Amazing!
We added chicken, of course. We also had it with a sprinkle of cheese on top and dollup of sour cream, along with our own tortilla chips mixed in. Absolutely delicious!
It is especially delicious while camping. We tried the potato soup by Bear Creek as well, but I wasn't impressed. This was a great hot dinner with a camp stove (didn't add anything then, but it was still great because we were camping!).

The bestJun 17, 2010
By C. Morehead
This is my favorite prepared food. I add some pulled apart chicken breast, broken tortilla chips (the fresh made chip recipe on the bag are worth it, but I don't always have fresh tortillas on hand), and a small can of Rotel diced tomatoes. My family doesn't stop asking for it.

Another hit from Bear Creek!Mar 03, 2010
By J. Kennel
"marriagefanatic"
I try not to change anything the first time I use a recipe, but I added leftover turkey breast to this soup and it was delicious. You can spice up or add to the soup, but it is fine as is--very hearty with beans and vegetables in it. Taste is subtle with light flavor of cumin, so you can make it hotter or chunkier or just eat it as is. This is a great deal and makes 8 servings, so it will really fill you up quickly if you serve guacamole, sour cream, salsa, and/or chips with it. Great for vegetarians. Nice quick tasty meal to add a little more variety to eating meals on the run and on a budget. Eight thumbs up from our house!
