Chicken Tortilla Soup

This is so newsworthy! I cooked again for the first time of the year:) I made this soup that I found on the internet, but of course I changed a few things (missed a few things) and made it my own. Yummmmm!!! IT's SO good. Dan's not a huge fan, but it's because he prefers more creamy soups. This one is chicken based.

1 onion
1 rotissiere chicken (pull off big chunks)
2 tbls olive oil
1 can black beans
1 bag of steamed corn
1/4 cup cilantro
2 cloves garlic
dash of salt
1 and half tsp of cumin
6 cups water
6 tsps. of chicken base

The original recipe had a whole system of adding this and then that in some special order while cooking it on high and then low to simmer. Yeah, I just threw all of it in the pot at one time and heated it up. It's also dairy free since Svea is not loving the dairy right now.

Of course a post wouldn't be a post without Svea...this is she and I after we made our soup!
