Trisha Yearwood's Tortilla Soup Recipe

This recipe combines seasoned chicken, a jar of salsa, and canned veggies to create a flavorful and comforting soup that’s perfect for any occasion.
I love how Trisha makes this dish easy with ingredients you likely already have in your pantry.
One key trick is to let the soup simmer long enough so all the flavors meld together beautifully.
This hearty soup not only tastes incredible, but it’s also easy to prepare, making it an ideal meal for busy weeknights or cozy weekends.
Don’t forget to garnish with crunchy tortilla strips for that perfect finishing touch!
