SOPA SECA DE TORTILLA
A rich and creamy Mexican side dish - full of peppers, onions, cheese and corn tortillas. It will surprise you. The name means "Dry Tortilla Soup" Some people would call it a casserole. I call it divine. A nice addition to a Mexican dinner, this also goes well with other foods. Not spicy at all, so it can go with many things. Though it is meant to be a side dish, you could serve it along with a large salad for a luncheon or light dinner. (Or, not so light, maybe) This is so rich and creamy, you'll want to make it for company. If you must have spicy foods, you can add some jalepenos to it if you like. But do try it this way first.
