Notes
Most people know this soup as chicken tortilla soup, but on a beef cattle ranch we mostly use ground beef and it's awesome. You can use either!
Use your favorite salsa - chunkier salsa results in a chunkier soup, use a smooth textured salsa if you want a smoother soup.
The salsa can also provide some heat to the soup or different flavors. If you want to add heat to the soup and use a mild salsa, add some red pepper flakes or sautéed jalapeños.
We usually top each bowl of soup with crumbled Doritos and cheddar cheese; but onions, sour cream, jalapeños, etc. all make great toppings.
