This soup has similar ingredients to the Creamy Chicken Enchilada Casserole we make. However, the stand out ingredients are Beef Broth and Steak Sauce. They really kick this soup up a notch. We feed 7 of us on most nights, Dale and I, Papa Don and 4 kids. So I doubled it and I am glad I did, we barely had a bowl left!
