I love tortilla soup, and I like it spicy.
My recipe is pretty easy because most ingredients come from a can.
1 can dark kidney beans
1 can light kidney beans
1 can black beans
1 lg can red enchilada sauce
1/2-3/4 small can chipotles in adobo sauce (chopped)
1 container beef or chicken broth
1 can corn
I throw it all in my instant pot and cook
I add cooked shredded chicken, cheese, sour cream, chips, and cilantro to the individual bowls after cooking.

Is this very spicy with a whole packet of taco seasoning as my husband doesn't really care for spicy foods?

I use a taco seasoning that says "mild" and it's not very spicy at all. My DH doesn't like spicy food either or maybe I should say it doesn't like him.

Put it all in the pot, heat to a boil and simmer until you're ready to eat (what I mean is, you can eat it right away or let it simmer as long as you want). Sprinkle with shredded cheese, tortilla strips or chips, and a dollop of sour cream. This easily serves 4. I always double it and add 2 cans of everything because it's even better the second day.

I make one very like this but it’s called taco soup, use ground beef instead of chicken, beef broth instead of chicken broth and kidney beans instead of black beans. Really quick and easy and tastes so good.

Made this last night without the chicken and DH says this is now his favorite soup! Thank you, Pam S!

I too cannot tolerate Mexican type spicy food....I like tasty, but not spicy...so any southwestern recipe in this kitchen is cooked without the burny add-on ( my mouth, tongue) in it. But, I like wasabi mixed with soy sauce when eating sushi..it is hot, but just for an instant, mixes with the food in your mouth and gives it extra taste, but instantly gone...not a lingering hot as southwestern type spicy. Never tried taco or tortilla soup......
