Max and Erma' and Olive Garden Soup Clones. 2 of my 3 fav soups

Max?s Erma?s Tortilla Soup Recipe Clone (12 to 16 Servings)

I use raw diced chicken breasts instead of cooked, and just dump everything into the Crock Pot and give it a good stir. Then I set it to Low for about 8-10 hours


4 cans Cream of Chicken Soup
2 Cans cream of Celery Soup
2 Cans Cheddar Cheese Soup
2 Cans Chicken Broth
1 Can Diced Tomatoes
1 Cup Picante Salsa
1 can green chilies
1 medium onion chopped
4 cloves garlic minced
1 tsp red chili powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
? cup cilantro
4 cooked chicken breast cut into small chunks
10 flour tortillas
1 ? cups vegetable oil
? lb Colby cheese

In a large (8-10 quart) stockpot combine and whisk together until smooth all eight cans of soup.

Add chicken broth. Add tomatoes, salsa, green chiles, onion, garlic, chile powder, salt and pepper. Bring all ingredients to a full boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 1 hour.

Add cilantro and chicken breast chunks. Simmer another hour.
While soup is simmering, make your soup toppings: Cut flour tortillas into small thin strips. Heat oil and deep fry tortilla strips until lightly browned. Shred cheese.


To serve: Ladle soup into bowls, top with shredded cheese and fried tortilla strips.
