Chicken, Corn and Salsa Soup
Nothing's better on a cold day than a hearty warm soup. It takes less an hour to prepare and you have a soup that's 'hot' in both temp and flavor. It's my favorite. You can make it as hot or as tame as you'd like; all depends on whether you choose a mild, medium or hot salsa to use in the recipe. For different flavor combinations, you can also swap out the type of cheese and tortilla chips you use.
Ingredients
1 ½ Cup of Water
1 14-Ounce Can of Chicken Broth
1 11-Ounce can of corn
1 Medium Size Jar of Salsa
2 Teaspoons of Chili Powder
2 Ounces of Shredded Monterrey Jack Cheese
1 Bag of Tortilla Chips
Directions
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Number of Servings: 6
Yield: 6 servings
