Tortilla Soup Recipe

This is the easiest tortilla soup recipe in the world.

INGREDIENTS
1 can of cheap chicken broth – Springfield brand maybe – it works for me
Approximately half a teaspoon of pre-packaged red chili from Papa John’s
3 packets of ketchup from McDonald’s (or wherever)
1 packet of hot sauce from Taco Bell
A (thin) round slice of Asadero cheese cut into six (uneven) strips
Approximately three handfuls of large tortilla chips (Las Cruces brand or whatever, as long as they are somewhat oily)

(OPTIONAL) Half of a small, ripe, avocado, cut into smaller pieces (OPTIONAL)

Directions

Mix the broth, the chili, the ketchup, and the hot sauce in a pan and heat until it comes to a simmer. Put the rest of the stuff in and heat for about two minutes. This serves two, maybe one, depending on how hungry you are. Play with the proportions – these are to my taste.

Tortilla Soup

I promised I would post my own recipe for tortilla soup months ago. I am almost ready. I will do it this afternoon. I need to find my notes first. Please be a little more patient with me. I am somewhat busy selling a shopping center right now. After I post the recipe, I certainly hope you will like it. It is very, very easy to make. You'll see. Try it on your boyfriend, your girlfriend, your spouse, or a close relative. If they don't like it, they will gently let you know.

Juarez Competitiva

Juarez Competitiva is a movement initiated by several Juarez businessmen aimed at changing the perception people around the world have of Ciudad Juarez - the most violent city in the world. It is structured in a way which imitates large-scale conferences, like the G-20. It will take place in October, 2011. You can help by accessing its page on Facebook and "liking" it. It is here. It would be nice to raise awareness so that all people around the world know about it and have a chance to help in any way they can. There will be a little something for everyone, even fine food. Concrete actions are worth a lot more than simply lamenting the situation.
Juarez Competitiva es un movimiento social a grande escala. Se llevara acabo en Octubre del 2011. Ustedes pueden levantar el perfil de este evento si simplemente van a Facebook y prensan el boton "like" que ahi se encuentra. Habra comida exquisita tambien. Claro que si. Mas vale ayudar un poquito que lamentar mucho. Aqui esta. Mil gracias.
