Steps:
- Cook onion and garlic in hot oil in a 4-quart pot for about 5 minutes or until tender. Stir in corn, tomatoes, squash, beans, and pork loin. Cook and stir until heated through. Chop two of the corn tortillas. Stir the chopped tortillas, broth, chili powder, and cumin into the mixture in pot. Cook and stir for about 5 minutes or until the tortillas are dissolved and the meat is done. Stir in cilantro.
- Meanwhile, preheat broiler. Place the remaining two tortillas on a baking sheet. Coat both sides of each tortilla with cooking spray. Broil 4 to 5 inches from the heat for 2 to 3 minutes or until crisp and golden brown, turning once halfway through broiling time. Using a long knife, cut the tortillas into thin strips. While still warm, gently ruffle the strips to create wavy tortilla strips. Carefully place on a paper towel; cool.
- To serve, spoon soup into serving bowls. Top with tortilla strips and avocado slices.

TORTILLA SOUP
There are many ways to make Tortilla Soup. Ours is a chicken-based version, but you could easily make it seafood or vegetarian. The main characteristics of this soup are a medium-bodied broth filled with chunky vegetables, lime and chile, and an overriding richness of corn masa.

Steps:
- Begin with a large pot. Saute the vegetables and chile briefly in about 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes. When the vegetables are limp, add the broth and add the garlic and cumin and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, add chicken, and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile (or beforehand), fry the corn tortilla strips in 350 degree F oil for 2 minutes until crispy. Drain well on paper towels. At the Blue Corn Cafe, we always have tons of chips around so we used crushed ones for garnish on the bottom of the soup bowl...the strips are added at the top. We, of course, use white and blue corn tortillas. If for some reason the blue variety are not available where you live, I suggest you immediately draft a letter to your Congressman! Yes, you can use all white or yellow tortillas.
- To finish the soup, you've got to make some slurry. Yep...this will add just a little body to the soup. With the cornstarch in a cup-sized container, mix as little cold water as possible to form a thin paste. This stuff feels and looks like...well, slurry. Bring the soup back up to a boil; stir with 1 hand and pour the slurry in slowly with the other. Continue to cook on high heat for a minute, then reduce to low. The soup will look cloudy at first but will clear up and thicken slightly. Remove from heat.
- Add cilantro and lime juice. Fill 8 to 12 cups or bowls about 1/4 full of crushed tortilla chips. Ladle soup on top. Place a handful of strips on top of each and serve. This soup (without the tortillas) keeps well for 3 to 4 days refrigerated. Tortillas will also keep well for a few days if sealed well and stored at room temperature. In moist climates they may require re-crisping in a 350 degree F oven for a few minutes.
- 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken (breast, leg, or thigh)
- 1/2 cup diced yellow onion
- 1/2 cup medium-dice green bell peppers
- 1/4 cup roughly chopped cilantro leaves
- 2 teaspoons oregano leaves
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons white pepper
- 4 cups (1 quart) water
- This "machaca" style cooked meat is very versatile: use in tacos, enchiladas, soup, nachos, burritos, etc. Basically a process of braising, the meat and all ingredients are put together in a large pot and brought slowly to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. If you desire, you can bake all of this in a covered dish in a 350 degree F. oven for about 3 hours for the same results. The meat should be tender to the point where it begins to shred...some of it may require quick chopping. You may want to reserve the liquid for use in soups, etc. Use the cooked meat in your dish right away or refrigerate for up to 3 days.
BLUE CORN TORTILLAS
Blue corn is one of many different varieties of corn grown by the Hopi and Pueblo Indians. It ranges in color from gray to blue to almost black, and is used in breads, dumplings, sauces and drinks. Blue corn tortillas are traditionally made without salt, as below, for salt is thought to mask the full but subtle taste of the blue corn.

Steps:
- You will need a medium-sized bowl, a griddle or heavy skillet at least 8 inches in diameter, and a rolling pin.
- Place corn meal in a bowl and pour boiling water over. Stir to mix well. Let sit for fifteen minutes. Mix in one-half cup of all purpose flour. Turn this mixture out onto a bread board spread with 1/4 cup of flour. Knead for 2 to 3 minutes, incorporating the 1/4 cup of flour into the dough (and if necessary, use a little more). The dough will be soft but not at all strong. Return the dough to the bowl and cover. Let rest for 30 minutes.
- Divide the dough into eight pieces. Between well-floured palms, make flat round patties out of each of the eight and set aside. Heat your griddle over medium high heat, making sure that it is hot before you cook the first tortilla. On a well-floured surface (as the dough is quite sticky), carefully roll out a tortilla until it is approximately 7 to 8 inches in diameter. (We find it easiest to first pat out the dough with our fingers or between our palms, and then to roll out the tortilla at the very last just to make it uniform in thickness). Cook the tortilla as you would a wheat tortilla, approximately one minute on each side. The tortillas will be flecked with brown on both sides. When cooked, remove and wrap in a kitchen towel. Stack one on top of another.

I do not like chicken, and get tired of picking it out of chicken based soups. So I came up with this version of tortilla soup, which I love. It is hearty and you can use more or less of the ingredients, to taste. This is definitely easily adaptable. You can add zucchini, black beans, etc.
