Vegetarian Wheaty Tortilla Soup

Thursday, March 10, 2011 by Lolli 3 Comments

 

It has been raining hard for 24 hours. Know what that means? It’s a soup night!

This is a recipe that my sister, Andrea, shared with me quite a while ago. I was skeptical at first (WHOLE wheat kernels?) but everyone LOVES this soup.

Plus, I love the HEALTHINESS factor, and the fact that this is such a filling meatless dinner. Even my picky kids eat this soup.

 

Vegetarian Wheaty Tortilla Soup

  • ½ cup whole wheat berries
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 tsp garlic salt

In a pot, bring wheat to a boil. Cover and simmer till soft (30 minutes). Then add:

  • 1 cup water (I personally like to add more liquid than this)
  • 1 Tbsp tomato bouillon (you can substitute 1 tsp of beef bouillon for the tomato, for a total of 2 tsp beef)
  • 1 tsp beef bouillon
  • ¼ tsp ground cumin
  • ¼ tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder (or minced fresh garlic)
  • ½ onion, minced
  • 1 can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 can corn, drained
  • 2 cans black beans, drained
  • I also sprinkle the soup with some chipotle spice for extra flavor

Simmer. Tear pieces of corn tortilla into individual bowls. Cover with soup. Top with cheese and crushed tortilla chips, olives, sour cream, etc.

Prepare to be amazed. It’s really good.

    I hadn’t heard of it, either, before my sister shared this recipe. I saw it in her house, so I know it really exists, but honestly, I didn’t care enough to search for it beyond the first few times…..I totally use any bouillon. Or I just use water and a spoon full of tomato paste. I’m not one to follow all the rules when cooking. :)

    YAY I’m so excited to try this one! We’ve been collecting vegetarian recipes and needed some fresh ones. Also, I have never ever heard of tomato bouillon. I think you might have made it up. :)
