Chicken Tortilla Soup

 I got this recipe from my beautiful friend, Diane.  Probably the nicest person I've ever met!  If you ever feel down about yourself, just hang out with Diane for 1 minute and she'll give you 50 compliments.  So nice.  She brought this soup to a church function and everyone was raving about it.  I got the recipe from her and made it last week.  Definitely a keeper in my recipe book!!


Chicken Tortilla Soup

1 cup carrot, diced
1 cup celery, diced
1 cup onion, diced
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 fresh diced garlic clove
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 (15 ounce) cans chicken broth
1 (15 ounce) can tomatoes, diced   
1 (10 ounce) can Rotel tomatoes & chilies, diced
