  1. CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP
    so I finally got around to trying the soup recipe and I did the tortillas. I even think I have figured out how to post pictures, Not the way you suggested Allison, no luck for the blond computer blogging novice.
    So here is the scoop. I was not impressed with the
    tortillas, even if I like them in restaurants.
    I guess I will never be a Paula Dean wantabee
    The deep fat frying thing was not great. Fan, on window open, had to light a candle to get rid
    of the smell. The fresh scent of the cilantro helped.
    None of the family was keen on the toritllas. my friend Jan stopped by and I gave her soup minus avocado cause that got gobbled up.
    She like the texture and crunch of the stips.

  2. Barbaram don't bother frying the tortillas next time. Baste them with a bit of olive oil, sprinkle with salt and cut in strips about 1 to 1 1/2 inches wide. Bake in a 350 oven until crisp.

    They come out very crunchy and are way better than deep freid tortillas.

    I'm with you about the deep frying thing. Yuck!
