Looks good to me!


Thank-you for this very nice recipe.

Kind Regards


Great recipe. I slice the tortillas into thin, about 1 inch strips, with a pizza cutter and put on soup.

I forgot to mention that I put in about 2 tsps of tomato paste while the onions, garlic, jalapeno and tomatoes are cooking! Might not make that much of a difference, but I did add it! :-)
