Austintacious Tortilla Soup

Austintacious Tortilla Soup

chipotle chicken, cilantro rice, black beans & corn with tortilla bits, jack cheese & cholula hot sauce

Tortilla Soup is the TexMex equivalent of comfort food — good for whatever ails you!

Our award-winning Austintacious version features diced tender chicken breast (cage-free), whole black beans, roasted corn, red ripe tomatoes, sweet bell peppers, and cilantro!  

Traditional toppings are included: bits of corn tortillas (made locally in an authentic Austin Tortilleria) and real freeze-dried Monterrey-Jack cheese.

UPDATE for long-time buyers of our Austintacious Tortilla Soup - the addition of Cholula Hot Sauce has become optional! Add Cholula for free if you want it or opt out of the extra weight and trash if you don't -- the choice is all yours!

Put this meal on the menu for any trip: It’s easy-prep trail food that will wow every palate... 
The tastiest trail soup we've ever eaten.

Sure, everything tastes better in camp. So we tried this dehydrated meal at home too, just to confirm our field findings. It is delicious. The soup is the perfect appetizer for hungry troops, a satisfying belly warmer in cold weather and substantial enough to pass for dinner when only a light meal is needed. Plus, it takes only 10 minutes to prepare. Ingredients are simple: chicken breast, red peppers, corn, tomatoes, cilantro, spices and rice. But the result is gourmet. “It tastes like it’s been simmering in the kitchen all day,” summed up one satisfied tester. Serving size is legit for two hungry guys, and it comes with toppings that make it easy to customize according to taste: freeze-dried Monterrey Jack, tortilla chips, Tabasco sauce and lime juice.

The roasted corn just topped off the wonderful flavor and the corn tortillas added a nice texture you don’t get with other freeze-dried meals. Thank you for putting so much thought into this meal.

    Let me just say that PackItGourmet is my family's absolute, hands down FAVORITE brand of backpacking food. My 15 yr old son snagged the only Tortilla Soup pack from a sampler pack I purchased and we made it on a high elevation backing trip this last weekend (11,600+ - added 1 minute of time for every 1,000' over sea level). The whole family (5 of us) sampled the soup and we were all blown away at how delicious this soup is. Planning a week long canoeing trip in a couple of weeks and every family member requested the Tortilla Soup be ordered for one dinner. And I heard my husband talking to one of his buddies on the phone this morning about this soup - it really is that good!

    I purchased some Packit Gourmet meals in preparation for our late fall camping trip. We wanted to try something out in advance, so we chose the Tortilla Soup. My wife and I both loved it. The broth was great, and the rice was perfectly cooked as were the vegetables. The lime crystals were a big hit with both of us, and I am a big hot sauce fan so I welcomed the the packet of Cholula. We will purchase more of this for the trip. Thank you Packit Gourmet!

      Let me just say that PackItGourmet is my family's absolute, hands down FAVORITE brand of backpacking food. My 15 yr old son snagged the only Tortilla Soup pack from a sampler pack I purchased and we made it on a high elevation backing trip this last weekend (11,600+ - added 1 minute of time for every 1,000' over sea level). The whole family (5 of us) sampled the soup and we were all blown away at how delicious this soup is. Planning a week long canoeing trip in a couple of weeks and every family member requested the Tortilla Soup be ordered for one dinner. And I heard my husband talking to one of his buddies on the phone this morning about this soup - it really is that good!

      I purchased some Packit Gourmet meals in preparation for our late fall camping trip. We wanted to try something out in advance, so we chose the Tortilla Soup. My wife and I both loved it. The broth was great, and the rice was perfectly cooked as were the vegetables. The lime crystals were a big hit with both of us, and I am a big hot sauce fan so I welcomed the the packet of Cholula. We will purchase more of this for the trip. Thank you Packit Gourmet!

    The tastiest trail soup we've ever eaten.

    Sure, everything tastes better in camp. So we tried this dehydrated meal at home too, just to confirm our field findings. It is delicious. The soup is the perfect appetizer for hungry troops, a satisfying belly warmer in cold weather and substantial enough to pass for dinner when only a light meal is needed. Plus, it takes only 10 minutes to prepare. Ingredients are simple: chicken breast, red peppers, corn, tomatoes, cilantro, spices and rice. But the result is gourmet. “It tastes like it’s been simmering in the kitchen all day,” summed up one satisfied tester. Serving size is legit for two hungry guys, and it comes with toppings that make it easy to customize according to taste: freeze-dried Monterrey Jack, tortilla chips, Tabasco sauce and lime juice.

    frequently asked questions

    What is Gluten Conscious?
     
    Gluten Conscious is a term we use to describe a product that is prepared with gluten free ingredients; however, it is not prepared in a gluten-free environment. While we are careful to avoid cross-contamination, it is possible that trace amounts of gluten may be present due to the use of gluten in our facility.
    Why is a Cook–in–Cozy™ recommended?
     

    We recommend that all of our hot meals spend time "steep-cooking™" while snuggled in a Cook-in-Cozy™. We find this method promotes a more consistent temperature and steady cook time for Cook-in-Bag™ preparation; and results in a better serving temperature for your meal. When not in use, our Cook-in-Cozy™ folds away nicely in your pack for storage and weighs in at only 1.4oz.

      This meal was so delicious I would even eat it at home! I took the Austintacious Tortilla Soup with me on a 4-day backpacking & climbing trip to Como Lake in Colorado and it was the perfect meal after a long arduous hike up Como Trail. The roasted corn just topped off the wonderful flavor and the corn tortillas added a nice texture you don’t get with other freeze-dried meals. Thank you for putting so much thought into this meal.
