I am big fan of tortillas..may it be as a snack with bean dip, or in soups.This comfort food really feels so nice whenever ive had a bad day at the office and just wants to relax at home, with a glass of wine a good bad. I make these whenever i feel down, its a great pick me uo meal.

Vegetarian Tortilla Soup
It's also vegan if you don't add the cheese at the end. If you prefer a more spicy soup, add a dash or two of hot sauce before serving
