Chicken Tortilla Soup

Sister Amon brought us this meal when I had Reagan. We instantly fell in love with this. I found a recipe that was healthy and that tasted just like hers. Adam also froze this and took this on the Winter camp out with the Scouts.

8 cups chicken broth - reserve 2 T * I use the broth from the chicken I boil
2 tsp minced garlic
2 c cooked cubed chicken
1/2 bell pepper chopped or sliced
1 tsp lime
1 c chopped onion
1/4 c green chile's
1 can corn
1/4 c fresh cilantro
2 tsp cumin
shredded cheese and tortillas chips

Spray large pot with Pam. Add 2 T chicken broth and heat over medium heat. Add onions, garlic, chilies. Cook for 3-5 minutes, until softened, add remaining broth, chicken, corn, bell pepper, cilantro, lime juice and cumin. Bring to boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 -15 minutes. This soup can be frozen.

Garnish with any cheese and chips you like.
