Tami's White Chicken Tortilla Soup

My sister gave me this yummy White Chicken Soup recipe years ago. At this point I can't remember if it's even close to the original anymore, but it's REALLY good! And for those busy day's, just grab a rotisserie chicken and this comes together in no time. OH, and a one-pot-wonder always makes me happy!
