Here is how you make "souped up" Bear Creek Tortilla Soup:

Cut the chicken into cubes (or however you desire), season as you like (I just used salt, pepper and a little lime juice) and saute until cooked through.Separately in a good-sized stock pot, start 8 cups of water to boil, prepare the soup as directed on the package. Once the soup mix is whisked/dissolved well into the boiling water- stir in the hominy, corn and chicken. Cook 20 or so minutes more- the soup package says 15 minutes, I gave is a little extra while I prepared the garnishes. The flavors came together very nicely. For garnishment consider: guacamole, fat-free sour cream, tortilla chips/corn tortilla crisps, salsa, black olives... etc. (none of these are figured into the nutritional information)Serving Size: Makes 5 (generous) 2-cup servings.
