    Tortilla Soup

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Tried and True

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    1 chicken — boiled and deboned
    broth from chicken
    2 cans chicken broth
    1 can diced green chilies
    1 can tomatoes with green chilies
    1 large black beans, canned
    2 cloves garlic — minced
    1/4 cup lime juice
    2 tablespoons cilantro
    1/2 teaspoon cayenne
    1/2 teaspoon cumin
    4 flour tortillas
    1 tablespoon olive oil

    Combine the chicken broth, green chilies, tomatoes with green chilies, onion, and garlic in a soup pot. Add the shredded chicken. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce heat and simmer for 30-35 minutes.
    Add the lime juice, cilantro, cayenne, and cumin. Simmer for 10-15 minutes longer.
    Cut the tortillas into 1/2 x 2-inch strips. Fry in hot olive oil in skillet until golden brown; drain on paper towels.
    Ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with shredded Monterey Jack cheese and the tortilla strips.

    You can leave off the tortilla strips if you want to save calories. I use a good bit more cumin and lime juice when I make it, just go by taste. When I plugged this into the recipe calculator it came out to be about 71 calories a cup, before tortilla strips and cheese of course. Yum!

    I make this awesome "creamy" soup made from soft tofu, cauliflower, potatoes and onion which is so tasty. Only 152 calories for a cup and a half. If that sounds good to anyone I will share the recipe. :))))

    This soup is great. Freezes very well. The trick with this is to get the salt and pepper right. It is extremely bland without it. Hope you enjoy!!

    "Cream" of Cauliflower and Potato Soup
    from "The Tofu Cookbook" by Leah Leneman

    1 medium onion
    1 small cauliflower
    1 pound of potatoes
    3 3/4 cup of water or vegetable stock (I use water)
    1/2 pound soft tofu
    1 tbsp vegetable margarine (I use the Brummel & Brown yogurt kind)
    Sea salt and black pepper to taste
    Chopped parsley (for garnish if you like that kind of thing lol)

    1. Chop the onion, cauliflower and potatoes into a dice.
    2. Combine the onion, cauliflower and potatoes in a pot with the water, cover and cook until very soft.
    3. Cool, then put into the blender and blend with the tofu. No need to drain the water that remains.
    4. Return the blended mixture to the pot. Add the sea salt, pepper and margarine and heat gently.
    5. Garnish with the parsley.

    This yields four 1 1/2 cup servings.

    Per serving:

    This is my recipe. It's really good as it is, but you can use milk instead of cream and broccoli, carrots, snap peas, etc., instead of potatoes. Low-fat sausage is a winner and turkey bacon to really make it healthier.

    I love this lentil soup! My husband begs for it weekly. I add a tablespoon of FF sour cream to my bowl and squeeze lime juice on top also.

    I also love this yellow split pea soup, I use Trader Joes Sweet Italian Sausage instead but still it is so tasty.
