For tortilla soup like abuela used to make, start with zesty garlic chicken, add tomato sauce, and kick up the flavor when you top with avocado, cheese and cilantro.
Pork chops are browned, then combined in the slow cooker with brown and white rice, onions, mushrooms, peas, and water chestnuts, in a flavorful sauce of beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and onion soup mix.
