Recipe: Keri's Tortilla-Cilantro Soup!


Tortilla-Cilantro Soup





Ingredients:
1 large onion- chopped
Minced Garlic
1 can Progresso hearty tomato (any diced tomato will do)
1 box Progresso Chicken Broth
2 cans corn (drained)
2 cans black beans (drained)
Oreano Flakes Spice
Roasted Red Peppers Spice
Thyme Spice
Garlic Salt Spice
Cajun Seasoning Spice
1 Heavy Cream/Whipping Cream
1 bunch cilantro
1 bag tortilla chips
OPTIONAL: Sour Cream


THE COOKING DIRECTIONS:

1. Chop the large onion all up in little pieces and put it in a HUGE pot, and add a big helping of minced garlic. I think I used 2 TBSP. You can use less.
**COOK on MED-HIGH**






2. Add 1lb ground beef and cook until no longer pink!

JUST LIKE THIS:





3. Add the whole box of Progresso Chicken Broth! (NOTE: You can use water and chicken boullion or base..) I use Chicken Broth instead of just water- it adds more flavor to the soup base.







4. Add 2 cans BLACK BEANS (drained) and 2 cans CORN (drained) to the pot.





5. Stir it up a bit and then add 1 cup Progresso Hearty Tomato (or any diced tomato can would be fine.





6. Stir the pot again.. and then add 2 TBSP Orgeano Flakes.





7. Add about 1 TBSP Thyme. enough to lightly coat the top of the soup.






8. Add 1 TBSP Garlic Salt, 1 TSP Roasted Red Pepper Spice, and 1/2 TBSP Cajun Seasoning Spice.






9. Stir it all together. Reduce the heat to MED-LOW. Take a whiff of that! MMMM. Heavenly! Cook for about 20 minutes.





10. Add about 1 1/2 cups of Heavy Cream/Whipped Cream to the pot and stir it up. Cook about 5 more minutes.


NO PICTURE.... OOPS!
Just imagine a picture of me adding
the Cream into the soup!!




11. Chop up the FRESH CILANTRO (the best thing in the world!!) Chop, chop, and chop!





12. Add the Cilantro to the soup! Stir it up softly! MMMMMMM!!!!







13. Crush up some tortilla chips on top of your bowl of soup and you can add a dollop of sour cream on the top! ENJOY!!
