4I have used low fat soups with no problem. Canned chicken makes it easier. A can of Rotel tomatoes with chilis instead of the tomatoes and chilis works fine. You can use 1 pkg flour tortillas and cut them in small, thin strips & deep fry in hot oil till browned. Keep in mind that commercial soups and tortilla chips have lots of salt. Salt sparingly and add salt to taste!
