Preparation

Step 1

Toss all the ingredients for the soup into your crock pot and give everything a good stir. Secure the lid and set to cook on low for 6-8 hours.

If you use whole peeled tomatoes you will want to carefully smash the tomatoes at some point so that they break apart into smaller pieces. Careful though or you'll have tomato guts everywhere!

Once the soup is done, preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray each tortilla with non-stick cooking spray. Cut the tortillas into thin strips and toss them onto a baking sheet.

Dust the strips with some salt and pepper to taste. I gave a sprinkle of taco seasoning too!

Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until starting to brown and crisp. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.

Dish the soup into bowls and top with a few tortilla strips and your choice of toppings.

Serve hot with a lime wedge!

Squeeze the lime wedge over the top of the soup and enjoy!
