Weeknight Simple Tortilla Soup


It's starting to get a little cooler here in Houston, though that's not saying too much (it's currently 57 F). Anyway...it's a nasty rainy day which seemed perfect for soup. This is one of my favorite soups and it super easy! Definitely good for a middle of the week dinner after a long day of work.

1 package frozen corn
1 rotisserie chicken, shredded
1/2 tbsp. onion powder
