Chicken Taco Soup

Recipe #15:  Chicken Taco Soup

As I said in my last post, I have been sick the past 3 weeks, which has kept me from both cooking AND blogging (unless you want me to post my recipe for homemade grilled cheese and purchased soup from Paradise Bakery). But, I do have a stockpile of photos and recipes that I made before I caught the cold from hell (CFH). 

Since Matt caught the CFH before I did, I made him this tasty soup for him. I wanted to stray from the path of traditional chicken soup, and thought something with a little spice would help clear his sinuses. 

So, I made this Chicken Taco Soup that was recommended by my mom. I added some diced avocados on top, and I had forgotten to buy cilantro so I left it out. 

The soup was good, but it wasn't as spicy as I wanted so I added a 1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper. I served this soup with some tortillas. If I haven't made a plug for uncooked flour tortillas yet, here it is: BUY THEM IMMEDIATELY! My grocery store sells them in the cheese section, and they take about one minute to cook in the pan (no oil, just put them in the pan for about 30 seconds then flip). They will change your life.
