I live in Northern New Mexico, where tortilla soup recipes are printed both in the paper and stored in safety deposit boxes. I eat this because I like the taste. At home I usually add some green chile since it is a little bland, but at work, right out of the cup. Highly recommended. You can add red chile or a little cayenne if too bland for the office. Peeling green chiles in the lunch room makes a bit of a mess. Prepared green chile could be left in the office fridge, though.

This soup is delicious. Anyone claiming some of the pieces are too hard or gritty are not cooking and stirring it properly.

I bought this particular soup because I'd tasted and enjoyed [very much] the black bean and split pea soup. This one was a disappointment. It was a little too watery, which I suppose could be solved by not adding the required amount of water, but I didn't care for the taste either. It was bland and the texture was too hard. The little bits of vegetable were too hard even after soaking longer than required.

First off, this soup will fill you up well because of the beans and rice. But I can't get over the sour flavor that
this soup has. It has lime in it so I figure that is what I am tasting, but its too much lime flavor and it gets in the way of the spices that are otherwise very good in this soup.

Not so sure I'll order this one again but I might try a different flavor from the same company.

For an instant soup I find this really not that bad. It is quick and easy just add hot water and wait a few minutes. It is really not that spicy, but you can always doctor it up. I so far like all the flavors.

I'd never eaten tortilla soup before this, but I really liked this soup.
I thought it was delicious! I also had the black bean, which I thought was almost as good as this one. These taste much better than Fantastic brand IMO. Great to take to work or school.

I found this to be pretty good, not amazing, but good for the value and it has very good nutrition for a instant meal, It had about 200 calories total, and no scary ingredients like food dyes or hydrogenated oils, etc. ( I am no food nut, but I try to avoid the obviously bad for you ingredients where I can).

When I opened the paper lid to the cup there was a little foil packet inside, that I had to use seizors to open...maybe I am just not good at opening little packets. This was pretty messy and the only reason I did not give this product 5/5 stars. I wish they had just mixed the flavor packet with the rest of the food, though I am sure they have their reasons for putting it in a separate packet. The veggies in mine cooked well. I used 200 degree f. water for this. If you like cream of wheat you might like this, because the "tamale" turns out to be more of a cream of wheat texture, but with a nice spicy touch that reminds you of tamales. There are crunchy chips in the soup which were good. I felt satisfied after eating this with a bag of carrots and a cheese stick. I buy this product weekly with a few other Mc.Dougall soups for my lunches at work. Don't get me wrong though, I probably would never have tried Mc. Dougalls products if I had not been recently diagnosed with a disease that has made me take a gluten free diet, not because I want to, but its my prescription! lol. I am glad that I did find these products, because for the price, easy to prepare, and good nutrition they have, it's hard to beat them. So all in all I recommend them to anyone.

but still pretty good. And relatively health and cheap. If you want a fast soup for lunch, these are great. Just add hot water, stir and wait. All the varieties I've tried taste great, but I would put Split Pea and Black Bean and Lime at the top (with this 3rd or 4th).

As is, it's okay, but tastes a little watery. I added a squeeze of Amore Italian Tomato Paste (that comes in tubes) and that really made it right!

I was skeptical of buying this soup at first but it by far surpassed my expectations. It tastes soooo good!
