Tony and I are wanting to eat more soup as the weather gets colder.  Last night I merged two recipes together and created a fantastic chicken tortilla soup.  I have to share the recipe.

1 small onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, crushed

2 T veg oil

2 cans chicken broth

1 can beef broth

2 cans cream of chicken soup (undiluted)

1 C water

2 10 oz cans of chicken (drained)

1 tomato, diced

1 can corn (drained)

2 t Worchestershire sauce

1 t cumin

1 t chili powder

1/8 t black pepper

1 4 oz can diced green chilis (undrained)

12 oz Velveeta cheese

Saute onion and garlic in hot oil in a large saucepan.  Combine water, broth, corn, tomato, and cream of chicken soup.  Bring to a boil.  Add chicken and spices.  Reduce heat.  Cover and simmer 15-20 minutes.  Add Velveeta.  Simmer uncovered until cheese melts.  Serve with any of the following: tortilla chips, avocado, cilantro, lime wedges, and/or shredded cheese.

It was delicious.  Even as leftovers (which I normally do not eat)!
