BUFFALO TORTILLA SOUP
This traditional Mexican soup takes on a whole new "el yumo" taste with our easy to use, heat and eat Pulled Buffalo Chuck Roast. My recipe is simple, but I promise it will not disappoint! I do have one warning though, when making the tortilla strips, be sure to have celery sticks close at hand to try to keep you from eating all of the hot, limed & salted crispy strips! No guarantee's on that though. *Recipe can easily be halved.

½ – cup coconut oil, or other oil
