Tortilla Soup
Comments:
Another of mum’s famous recipes -- very popular for a casual dinner
party! A great hot meal for a cold night. Can be made vegetarian by using
vegetable stock instead of chicken stock. Makes 4-6 servings.
Ingredients:
- 1 onion chopped
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 jalapeno chopped (optional)
- 1 14 oz. can tomatoes (diced)
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 1 tsp. cumin
- 1/2 tsp. lemon pepper
- 1 can tomato soup
- 1 tsp. chili powder
- 2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
- 1 can whole kernel corn, drained
- 1 can kidney beans, drained
- 1-2 avocados
- 1+ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 20 or so tortilla chips crushed slightly
Directions:
Saute onion through tomatoes in large skillet.
In separate large soup pan combine chicken stock, cumin, lemon pepper, tomato soup, chili powder, worcestershire. Add tomato mixture, corn and beans. Simmer 1 hour stirring occasionally. If soup gets too thick add a little water.
10 minutes before the soup is ready, put in each bowl: 3 avocado slices, small handful tortilla chips, and 2 Tbsp. cheddar cheese. Pour soup over. If you really like cheese add some more on top!
