vegetarian tortilla soup
Another favorite spicy soup to open up those sinuses!
You need:
2-3 tablespoons olive oil
1 red pepper (diced or sliced)
1green pepper (diced or sliced)
1 yellow pepper (diced or sliced)
3 garlic cloves
1 medium onion diced
1 1/2 cup corn kernels
2 carrots (sliced in thin coins)
1 can black beans
1 (28 oz.) can crushed tomatoes
2 or 3 (4 oz.) cans chopped green chilies, drained (since I make this for 2 youngins’ I only use 1 can)
32 oz vegetable broth
3 tablespoons ground cumin
salt and pepper to taste
tortilla chips
1 avocado- peeled and diced
large soup pot
Directions:
-Heat the oil in a large soup pot. Sweat the garlic, onions and peppers. Add the carrots and cumin; cook for 5 minutes until vegetables are tender. Mix in the tomatoes, corn, chili peppers, and vegetable broth. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
-Serve with tortilla chips. Top with avocado.
*Even with only 1 can hot chilies it warms up the insides! Perfect for a cold Autumn or Winter day!

Tortilla soup is one of my favorites! I have a recipe that my mom passed along to me and I make it all the time…soooo good and soo healthy!
Yumm-o! I could eat soup every day from November until March… it’s the best cold weather food ever. My family will be glad that I have something new to add to the mix. I can’t wait to try this!

Oh, thank you for the recipe! I recently have been trying to make the change to veg- and love all the recipes I can get my hands. I love soup! xoxo
Oh, sounds great! We have been eating lots of soup lately: pumpkin soup, mushroom barley, chowder, and so forth. Can’t wait to add this to the menu.
This sounds lovely, we are a vegetarian family and are certainly enjoying soup on these colder days!

Looks delicious! Are you a vegetarian family?
Ooh! This looks and sounds delicious!! I will share this with my Nourishing Traditions group on Wednesday.
Thanks!!
Sounds delicious! I can’t wait to try it.
YUM! You must know how much I like soup! This one sounds delicious. I made the best curry butternut squash soup last night for our community house dinner and it was a real hit. Very easy to make. You just need enough time to roast the vegetables, which could be done beforehand. http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Roasted-and-Curried-Butternut-Squash-Soup/Detail.aspx
Lisa, what kind of felt do you use for your felties? Is it 100% wool or is it acrylic? I think I would like to make some of my own.
Oooh, yum, yum, yum! Thank you so much for sharing this! I made taco chili last week, which was a hit. So now I must try this. Mmm…
Lisa, I was having some butternut squash soup tonight and thinking about a tortilla soup I had once at a friend’s house and that I needed to get that recipe and then I went on the computer to check out some blogs and lo and behold here is a tortilla soup recipe. Must be the law of attraction at work.
Can’t wait to try it out!
