Margs, definitely. Tacos, standard. But a bowl of this tortilla soup would really take your Mexican feast over the top. Skillet-fried tortilla strips garnishing the top of the cheesy soup make it extra photogenic.

ready in:
  30-60 minutes

ingredients

1 can (14 ounce size) ready-to-use chicken broth
1 can (14 ounce size) ready-to-use beef broth
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 cup salsa
1/2 teaspoon cumin
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 corn tortillas, cut into 1/8" x 3" strips
1 cup shredded Monterey jack cheese

directions

In a large saucepan, combine the chicken and beef broths, the onion, salsa, and cumin; bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Saute the tortilla strips for 2 to 3 minutes, or until lightly browned, turning to brown both sides; drain on paper towels.

When ready to serve, ladle the soup into serving bowls and sprinkle with the tortilla strips and cheese. Serve immediately.
