Chicken Tortilla Soup

I got this one from a swap. I haven't made it yet but it looks super easy.

1 can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 can condensed nacho cheese soup
1 can (4.5 oz) chopped green chilies
1 package (2 cups) cooked, chopped chicken breast
2 soup cans of milk Tortilla strips or tortilla chips

Mix soups, chilies, chicken and milk in a saucepan. Heat until bubbly. Add tortilla strips to soup just before serving.

I have to share with you Trudi my favorite beef stew recipe.. its a bit different from typical beef stews but I like it.

3/4 c. italian dressing
2# beef stew meat, cut in chunks (i recommened leanest cuts otherwise it can get tough when cooking in this recipe)
6 slices bacon, chopped
1 lg. onion, chopped
3 c. sliced carrots
5-6 med. potatoes peeled and cut in chunks
1-14.5oz can stewed tomatoes, undrained
1-14.5oz can beef broth

Combine beef and dressing in ziploc bag, marinate 30 minutes in fridge.
In large stock pot cook bacon until crisp, remove with slotted spoon and drain fat into another bowl. Add onion to stock pot and cook 10 minutes. Remove meat from marinade, discarding juice and bag, and place in stock pot with onions. Add carrots, potatoes, tomatoes with liquid, and bacon to pot. Bring to a boil and stir occasionally. Cover and reduce heat to low, simmer for 20 minutes. Uncover and stir, simmer for 15 more minutes.

I usually simmer it a bit longer than 15 minutes at the end because I like the carrots very tender. Very juicy and great with crusty italian bread!
