  • LOL, REOM.  I should have also added the word easy in my title.  All those ingredients scare me.  Can't someone just bring me some???
  • I am thinking I am just going to order some for take out. 
  • I'm not sure if you guys have Bear Creek soup in your grocery store.  It near the canned soup, but it's a powder in a bag and you just add water.  Their tortilla soup is really good and easy!  I would suggest topping it with a little cheese and sour cream.

  • Just placed my order.  I told them to throw in a couple of chicken enchiladas while they are at it.  What started out as my quest for tortilla soup is ending up with Mexican take out for the whole family.
