Tortilla Soup

I got this recipe from my sister who got it from her sister-in-law Shannon. It is so easy and so yummy! It looks like a lot of ingredients and work but you basically dump everything into one pot. It definitely hits the spot on a cold and rainy day! It may be the best tortilla soup I have ever had!Ingredients:
