This mildly spicy, cheesy Chicken Tortilla Soup really warms you up on a cold day! The recipe is adapted from Food.com with a little more garlic added in.

Chili makes a wonderful meal in the cold weather seasons and this is a great recipe a friend shared with me. This chili is spicy, but not too spicy…just spicy enough to have a little kick! I switched it up just a little by adding some different seasonings and a few other ingredients. That’s one…
