I added medium Rotel two cans and a whole bunch of cilantro.... OMG it was really great. The tortilla chips give it a thickness that is essential. I used blue tri colored chips and loved it. Its a definate must try. Gonna cook it again tonight : )

This was a delicious and easy recipe! The diced up avocado, sour cream and tortilla strips really add pizzaz. We have tried this kind of soup at several restaurants and felt that this recipe was even better than eating out!

Great recipe. I substituted 2 cans of rotelle original in place of the salsa it was hot and spicy. My husband loved it.
