Mexican Tomato Soup

This quick and easy Mexican Tomato Soup has become a favorite for my family.

I have been making this soup for awhile now, but I recently realized that I had not shared it with you all. After a weekend full of eating I thought today would be a great day to share a simple soup recipe with you.

This is a pretty basic homemade tomato soup, but I have changed it up and added some Mexican flavors to it. We love it with either tortilla chips or with cheese quesadillas. With quesadillas it is kind of like the classic combination of tomato soup and grilled cheese, but with Mexican theme.

Mexican Tomato Soup is perfect this time of year. It is quick and easy to make and it is so good on a cold day.
