I tasted this soup at my local H-E-B while grocery shopping and it was amazing! I love how it comes together so quickly because of the bottled soup starter and premade tamales. Of course you could always us homemade tamales and make your own soup base, but I love the ease of this quick mid week meal.
1 onion rough chopped
2 Tbsp butter
1 jar Tortilla Soup Starter
1 cup low sodium chicken broth
1 can Rotel
1 package tamales, any variety
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can corn, drained
shredded cheese
In a large pot sautee the onion in butter until tender. Add the jar of soup, broth and Rotel to the pot. Stir and bring to a boil. Remove the husks from the tamales and cut tamales into bite-sized pieces. Add the beans and corn to the pot, stir and reduce heat to low. Add the tamales, stirring gently. Simmer, uncovered, 15-20 minutes.
Serve in bowls topped with cheese and sour cream! Enjoy
