Soup Ingredients

Method

Soup Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Soup Base

    In a large pot over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    Pour in the chicken broth, cooked shredded chicken, enchilada sauce, black beans, corn, cumin, and chili powder. Stir well to combine.

  3. 3

    Simmer the Soup

    Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Serve the Soup

    Ladle the soup into bowls and top with shredded cheese and fresh cilantro.

Sandwich Directions

  1. 5

    Prepare the Sandwich

    Lay out 2 slices of bread and place a slice of cheddar cheese on each. Add crumbled bacon and sliced tomato on top of the cheese, then cover with the remaining slices of bread.

  2. 6

    Cook the Sandwich

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, add the sandwich and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Repeat with the other sandwich.

  3. 7

    Slice and Serve

    Once both sandwiches are cooked, slice them in half and serve alongside the enchilada soup.
