I was disappointed with this soup. The broth was bland and the chicken was dry. I think I'll stick to my usual chicken tortilla soup recipe.

The soup was a little too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.

I love that this recipe is so easy to make. I was able to throw it all together in about 30 minutes. It's also really affordable, which is a plus.

This soup was amazing! I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfect. The chicken was tender and juicy, the vegetables were crisp-tender, and the broth was flavorful and cheesy. I will definitely be making this soup again.
