Mexicali Soup

Contributor: Dana Still, Yvonne Mercer Berry

Directions

  1. Cook 4 chicken breasts and dice separately.
  2. Begin with Knorr's mushroom soup. Prepare using instructions on box.
  3. Pour in one can Rotel chopped green chilies/tomatoes. Pour in 2 cans chicken broth (16 oz at least). To this mixture you can add chopped onion, sliced black olives, or some chopped green onion. Salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Cut 3 to 4 flour tortillas into bite size pieces and drop into this mixture. We use 1 small jar of jalapeno Cheese Whiz (this will be hot - you can use mild Mexican or regular Cheese Whiz). Add to mixture.
  5. Put chicken in and you can then add more chicken broth or water to get the consistency you want.
  6. Sprinkle crumbled tortilla chips on top - shredded cheese, black olives, green onions, etc.
  7. We like sour cream on top of soup also.

Taco Soup

Contributor: Vana Hert Taylor

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Brown the ground round and drain any excess grease.
  2. Chop the onion and add it and all the other ingredients (including juices in the cans) to the ground round. Simmer until ready to eat... flavor is best after at least 30 minutes.
  3. Can be frozen and reheated... it tastes great! Also can be done as a vegetarian meal... substitute one 12 oz package of Boca or Morningstar veggie crumbles and it's even easier... you just throw all the ingredients in at once. Also, Del Monte fiesta corn and Rotel diced tomatoes work well. This is one recipe that can't be messed up!!
