WELCOME TO MIX IT UP MONDAY WITH MAD DASH MIXES
WEEK 26
WHAT ARE WE MIXIN’ UP THIS WEEK?
Nothing beats a warm, hearty soup on a cold day! We are experiencing a cold snap this week, so I decided to prepare Tortilla Soup using one of the mixes from Mad Dash Mixes. If you would like to try some of their products, I have arranged for you to receive a 15% discount if you use the code farmhouse. Orders can be placed at http://www.MadDashMixes.com
I gathered the basic ingredients that I will need. Since I have some corn in the freezer, I am going to use that in place of the canned corn. I also have some diced chicken in the freezer, so I will add it as well.
Let’s Get to Mixin’!
To make the soup, you will need the Tortilla Soup mix from Mad Dash Mixes, water, diced tomatoes, canned or frozen corn. To make it extra hearty, diced chicken and zucchini can be added. I did not have any zucchini so I didn’t use it when I made the soup.
The Steps
After combining the soup mix with the water, diced tomatoes and corn, bring the soup to a boil. If using corn and zucchini, add it now. Stir occasionally. After the soup boils, reduce the heat to low, simmer for 15 minutes. Please remember to stir the soup occasionally while it is simmering.
Ready to Serve
Tortilla chips or corn chips add a crunchy topping to the soup. Using the blue corn chips adds color to the soup. A dollop of sour cream, shredded cheese or even Guacamole could be added to the soup. It is fun to experiment with the different toppings! We used blue corn chips, guacamole and shredded cheese to top our soup. My husband said this soup was excellent!
Avocado slices and black olives can also be used as toppings for this delicious soup.
