Savory Tortilla Soup Recipe

I really like when soups are a bit substantial and full of flavor. This savory chicken soup recipe includes plenty of nutrients that will help you feel full without a lot of calories. It’s a great side dish or perfect to eat by itself for lunch. It also doesn’t take much time to prepare and stores pretty well in the refrigerator, in the event you don’t manage to finish it all. I’d like to note that this is one of my favorite things to eat whenever I’m feeling a bit under the weather.

Another thing I like to add sometimes is some “acini di pepe” or ball noodles as some people call them. Of course shredded chicken goes perfectly if you’re looking to add a little more protein to the dish. I wrote that crushed up Doritos (spicy chili is my favorite) go well but you can use regular tortilla chips if you aren’t a fan of those.

Overall it’s a relatively quick and simple thing to make. Whether it’s to go along with your meal or by itself, it seems most people enjoy it regardless of the food pairing. Let us know in the comments what you like to add to yours! I know a few people that request the black beans be removed, it all comes down to personal tastes and what you like. Enjoy!
