Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    So good! And perfect for a rainy autumn evening. In the interest of fewer dirty dishes, I put everything in the soup pot and did not cook the chicken separately in a skillet. Also did not fry the tortillas in oil, too messy. I just baked them and thickened the soup with 3 T masa harina. I like a bit more tomato in my tortilla soup, so I added the entire can of tomato paste. Sounds excessive, but it just provides a richer, umami background flavor. Could not find a poblano pepper so I substituted canned green chiles.
