This was a nice thick soup. I followed other reviews and used a whole box of chicken broth with the 12 corn tortillas, a 10 oz. can of each enchilada sauce, sauted onion & 3 large garlic cloves in olive oil before adding broth, used whole milk rather than H&H, added 2 cans of Rotel tomatoes, 1 can of black beans and some frozen corn. Since by mistake I picked up one HOT Rotel Can rather than the Original it was a bit spicy for us. I toned it down as another review said with 1 cup of sour cream. May keep that in next time anyway. Thanks to other reviewers for these interesting tweaks. I will make this again. UPDATE: This just tastes better every day. I think I'll leave in the one can of Hot Rotel and one Original next time plus the 1 cup of sour cream. Hubby loves it too.

The original recipe may be fine but I incorporated many of the changes in the reviews and it was wonderful. I sauteed onions and garlic and added it to the turkey and chicken broth with a can of drained corn, a can of Rotel tomatoes, no red enchilada sauce and about 3/4 of a bottle of Herdez salsa verde. I only had flour torillas so I put some in the chicken broth to thicken the soup and baked the rest for a topping. I used mexican mix cheese, baked torillas and sour cream on top of the soup. It was wonderful.

This recipe was SUPER tasty! Honestly a great way to deal with turkey leftovers after Thanksgiving. It tasted even better when I had it the next day!

I was a little leary about how the tortillas work/hold up in this soup, but I followed the recipe and found out that this was great. The thickness that the tortillas gave made it a heartier soup and the flavor was awesome. In place of the chicken broth, I boiled my turkey carcas. Worked great. Wasn't sure my husband would like this, so, since I had so much leftover broth from the carcas, I made a turkey vegetable soup as well and served both. This soup was the clear winner. Thanks for the great recipe.

quick, easy and absolutely delicious! I added corn and black beans. I cut out the half and half and added a dollop of sour cream to my bowl. Great recipe, thank you very much.

Really, really, really good soup! I embellish the flavor with chopped celery and corn - yum! I also add shredded cheddar cheese to the bottom of each bowl before filling! Good stuff!

My sons loved this one. I added some roasted chilies and two cans of fire roasted tomatoes; last but not least two cans of corn. It was wonderful:) The best part was its sooo easy

I give this a 4-star because of the flavor of the soup. But I wouldn't really call it a soup soup, meaning it isn't very liquid like. It tastes so so good though and will definitely make it again. It is especially good when you add sour cream and avocado. I don't know how to make it less thick though. I'll have to play with it.

Loved it! Did what the others suggested and added a drained can of corn and black beans. I also started the mixture with sauteeing onion and garlic in olive oil. Also, instead of a chopped tomato, I just added a can of diced tomatoes. I also didn't use the corn tortillas because I didn't have any. I just added some tortilla chips at the end. Definitely a keeper
