Tortilla Night!

     Made an easy, wonderfully yummy, meal tonight.  Chicken tortilla soup, with homemade tortilla chips.
     The soup is so good, and so easy.  In a saucepan I sauteed, green onions, a tomato, and garlic.  I added some chopped up chicken, salt, pepper, and chili powder.  You don't have to, but I add corn and black beans.  How can you not add them?!  Simmered for 20 minutes (or however long it took to give Marshall a bottle).  It is just that easy.
     I had never made tortilla chips before tonight and had no idea that it was so simple.  I cut up three tortilla, (more than enough for two people), and put them in a bowl.  You then add a small amount of olive oil, whatever spices you like, and mix together with your hands.  I used paprika and sea salt.  Bake for 5-7 minutes at 400 degrees.  Perfect for dipping in my tortilla soup!
     Yay for Tortilla Night!

     Now my next thought is to use cinnamon and sugar on the chips.  With a little sugar cream cheese drizzle, ah, perfection!
