So - I present to you....
Chilis Southwestern Vegetable Soup

1 cup water
1 (14.5 ounce) can dark red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
2 (14.5 ounce) cans yellow cut corn
2 (14.5 ounce)cans cut green beans
1 (4-ounce) can diced green chilies
1 large diced yellow onion

8 corn tortillas, minced
5 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
dash of salt
dash of pepper
cayenne pepper to taste
Directions
Combine all the soup ingredients in a large saucepan or soup pot over high heat. Be sure to mince the corn tortillas into small pieces with a sharp knife before adding them to the soup.Bring soup to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the soup has thickened and tortilla pieces have mostly dissolved.To serve soup ladle 1 1/2 cups into a bowl. Sprinkle a heaping tablespoon of the grated cheddar/jack cheese blend over the top of the soup, and then a heaping tablespoon of crumbled corn tortilla chips over the cheese.
