This is a picture of my version of Max and Erma’s Tortilla Soup.
As Mr. D and I was traveling through the state of Ohio last summer to visit our family, we stopped at a regional restaurant chain, Max and Erma’s. They gave us a free sample of their tortilla soup. It was so creamy, smooth and delicious. The chain is known for this wonderful soup and I can understand that. I knew I had to find a similar recipe and try it some time over the winter months. A few weeks ago I found the recipe I am sharing with you and it is a copycat recipe. There were many different versions when I googled the internet for a version of the soup. However, this version seemed so creamy and so similar to the taste I experienced.
This is a link to the recipe:

Was I satisfied with the results? Absolutely. It was smooth, creamy and had the perfect portion of all the ingredients. It isn’t a real heavy soup so it would be a good choice for the springtime or autumn. I think the velveeta makes the soup so special.
Below is a link to Max and Erma’s website. They are based out of Columbus, Ohio and have restaurants throughout the area. Even though I was pleased with the results of this recipe, if I had a choice I would much rather have some of the real thing from Max and Erma’s.
Thanks for stopping by.
Thanks for sharing this recipe. I am going to try this. I saw a survey several months ago that said the most popular item that is ordered in Ohio in a restaurant is soup. Soup is very popular in that part of the country. I know I grew up in Ohio and we are a lot of soup for supper. I still make lots of soup.
Thanks for your comment. I also appreciated hearing about how popular soup is in Ohio. I know that tortilla soup is an absolute favorite of mine and I hope you enjoy it too.
I enjoy tortilla soup but have never had a creamy version, I bet it is good.
