I have been getting emails asking for recipes so instead of posting my weekly menu, today I'm going to post what is perhaps the easiest soup recipe I have ever made. I got the recipe from
http://www.vegetariantimes.com/ but made a few changes. If you can use a can opener then you can make this soup. There is no chopping, measuring or pureeing involved. You don't even add spices. Each serving packs a whopping 19 grams of protein. It makes a huge batch so it's perfect for this time of year. You can bring it to a potluck or share it with a neighbor. It's a spicy soup so if you need to mellow it out, just add a
dollop of sour cream or cut back the enchilada sauce and use a little vegetable broth instead. But I think it is perfect just the way it is. I serve it with slices of fresh
avocado on top and crusty french bread.

Sounds fabulous. I will definitely try it. Pumpkin? Sounds intriguing...and very healthy :).
ReplyDeleteThis sounds so good, and easy Janet! Thanks for sharing. Question, why do you spray the soup pot with non-stick spray? Wouldn't the tomato juice keep the beans from sticking? Or maybe it depends on the type of soup pot?
ReplyDeleteJust came across a chipotle sweet potato soup... now doesn't that sound good!! I love soups!
Joan,
ReplyDeleteI think the idea behind the non-stick spray is for easier clean-up. I doubt it matters to the recipe at all. And please share your sweet potato soup recipe.

The pumpkin sounds like a very interesting addition..sounds delicious overall!
ReplyDeleteHi Janet,
ReplyDeleteI've made (and enjoyed)that soup many times, without the pumpkin. Next time I make it, I'll try adding that. For us, it was the un-official beginning of fall this weekend, because I made the first big pot of veggie chili. Otherwise, spent the day much like you did!
