I love a good soup recipe especially if it's easy and this chicken tortilla soup is no exception. My mom sent me this soup recipe a couple weeks ago and we made it right away. It was a huge hit with the family and the LDS missionaries we were hosting.
Of course, missionaries will eat just about anything so that may not be the best endorsement!

Though the recipe asks you to crumble the chips in the bottom of the bowl and top them with the soup, feel free to sprinkle them on top—whatever floats your boat!
