I woke up to this on Monday:
And my thoughts immediately went to soup. A big pot of it. But I had a lot on my plate that day, including a 3-hour round trip to my grandpa’s house. Thankfully, I had everything on hand for this tasty recipe.
Which came together in 30-minutes, making it the perfect don’t-have-time-to-cook meal.
And anything that is served over a bed of tortilla chips is likely to be a sure hit, even when noticeable vegetables are involved.
The printable recipe is below.
