    Divide soup among 6 bowls. Top with tortilla strips. Garnish soup with sour cream, avocado, onion and cilantro. Serve with lime.

Tip: If desired, prepare homemade tortilla strips. Slice four 5-inch corn tortillas into ¼-inch strips. Heat 1/3 cup canola oil in medium skillet set over medium heat. Stir in 2 tsp Culinary Collection Sofrito. In batches, add tortilla strips and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
