The website i got the majority of the recipe said for 1 1/2 cups it was 160 calories. The only thing I added to the soup was the carrots celery and zucchini that will add a few calories to your total. It was delicious! Hope you enjoy!!!! And of course if you want to add the tortilla strips is extra calories also.

My wife makes chicken tortilla soup very similar to this. I can verify that it is amazing. I think I like it more than chili.
I like to add some crumbled up tortilla chips, fat free sour cream, and a bit of cheese. I can have a very large bowl (2 cups of soup) with all the fixins for about 500 calories.0 -
I've been making a similar soup for years, but I add 2 TB A-1 steack sauce, a 1/2 cup salsa, and some chili powder. It really gives it a kick. I also sometimes grill the chicken breast, which gives it more depth of flavor.0

This sounds sooo yummy..bumping will have to try0

Thanks for the recipe. I love jalapenos in soup; what great flavor! Do you know the sodium count on this soup? It's so hard to do low-sodium soups, even when you make them yourself.0

Im not sure of the exact sodium count
but the chicken broth and all the tomatoes were no sodium/ no sodium added.0 -
