This soup sounds wonderful. I just bought some ingredients to make a similar soup. Yum!


Oh my goodness! Whenever we go to Cracker Barrel, the Bratchild always orders the tortilla soup. It is just the best thing. This sounds very close, so it's going to the saves for next week's menus!
Thanks,--Kn0x--
