A long time ago (like three years ago) I had some chicken tortilla soup from Cafe Rio. It was so good. I have never had it from there since because I always want the salad or the tacos. I try and make up my own copy cat recipe all the time though. I have no idea if this tastes like Cafe Rio or not because it has been so long since I have had the Cafe Rio. Anyway, we had this version of Chicken Tortilla Soup the other night and it was delicious. I am putting the recipe on here because I made it up and I will forget. It was good.
2 chicken breasts cooked and shredded (or however much you want)
4 cups chicken broth
1 can of corn, undrained
1 can blk beans, drained
1 can pinto beans, undrained
1 can diced tomatoes
1 can green chilis
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp pepper
1 T lemon juice (lime would probably be better, but I had lemon)
cilantro
Put everything in a pot and cook for 30 min.
Serve with cheese, sour cream, and guacamole. I also cut up some corn tortillas into strips and baked them until they were crispy to serve with the soup, but you could use tortilla chips if you wanted.

Made this last night super yummy! Didn't have any green chili's so I chopped up a red pepper and added it. Also I had some seasoned chicken from the night before (we had tostadas) I used that along with another chicken breast. Also I had some rice left over from the night before so about 10 min before serving I added the left over rice which was yummy too. It was Rice-A-Roni Fajita Chicken flavored rice.
