I love this! I made some changes and added an additional 2 cups of chicken broth, 2 cans of Rotel (1 pureed) instead of salsa, 1 can Mexicorn, and 1 can of black beans. I also added 1 teaspoon chili powder and crushed tortilla chips. I let it simmer of 30 minutes and placed whole tortilla chips in the bottom of the bowl and added the cheese on top. Delicious !!!!

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 : )
