INGREDIENTS:  
1 (1-ounce) envelope onion soup mix  
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour  
1 teaspoon ground cumin  
1/2 teaspoon chili powder  
1 cup water  
1 cup chunky salsa  
2 (16-ounce) Italian bread loaves  
4 cups shredded lettuce

2 cups (8 ounces) shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese blend  

DIRECTIONS:  
Combine first 4 ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl.  
Stir in 1 cup water; cover with plastic wrap, folding

thick shells. Place 1 cup lettuce in bottom of each shell.
