Today is my mothers birthday. She's only 31! (okay, not really but don't say anything) She also has been prepping me and everyone else for her birthday for a good week. She would say stuff like "oh, i bet your baby is waiting to be born until sunday.. you know the national holiday." Goofy, right!? But anyway, for her holiday festivities I am making her dinner. It's crummy weather so she decided on Chicken Tortilla Soup! Simple but delish:) Baked corn tortillas and a spicy soup will make this birthday unforgettable!
Zesty Tortilla Soup
4 c broth (chick or veg) or more if you like a lot of broth
1 can fire roasted tomatoes, not drained.. you want that liquid!
1 can green chiles
1 can black beans, drained
1 can corn, drained
