IS EASY TORTILLA SOUP SPICY?

Easy Tortilla Soup is made with jalapenos and cayenne pepper to give the soup a bit of heat and depth.  If you are not a fan of spicy food, feel free to reduce the amount of the ingredients called for or leave them out all together.  As is, the recipe is written to produce a very mild heat.

CAN YOU FREEZE EASY TORTILLA SOUP?

Yes! Easy Tortilla Soup freezes beautifully. To freeze, allow the Easy Tortilla Soup to cool completely, then store your soup in a large freezer bag or airtight plastic container and then move it to your freezer for up to 4 months.  Leave out the tortilla chips you would have used as a garnish as they will get soggy in the soup and will not reheat well.
