How to make Homemade Baked Tortilla Strips:

All you need is flour tortillas, olive oil spray, and sea salt. Cut your tortillas into strips (or whatever shape you want) and place them on a baking sheet. You could always brush on oil but I just simply sprayed it all on my chips. Sprinkle with salt and then bake.

How to freeze this recipe:

To make this recipe and freeze it I usually wait to make the tortillas until I am ready to serve. Since they only take a few minutes and are not hard to get together. You can easily freeze the soup though. Cook it according to directions, allow to cool, then place a freezer bag, and into the freezer. This soup can last in the freezer for 3-4 months.

How to reheat this recipe:

To reheat this recipe place the frozen soup in the refrigerator for 24 hours. Place in a pot and reheat on the stovetop until heated through.
