The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

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.

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.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
