Taco Soup In Your Blender Food

EASY BLENDER VITAMIX TORTILLA SOUP

Steps:

• Heat a large saucepan over medium to high heat and add in olive oil.
• Add in onion, garlic, cumin, seasoning, salt, pepper, carrot, and bell pepper and sauté for 5 minutes until softened.
• Add in crushed tomatoes, broth, and half of the black beans, then stir to combine and bring to a simmer, about 2 minutes.
• Transfer everything to a high speed blender or Vitamix and blend on low, increasing slowly to full speed for 2 minutes until completely smooth.
• Add the corn and remaining beans to the blender and blend for 2-3 seconds just to combine.
• Pour hot soup into 2-3 bowls and garnish with tortilla chips, fresh cilantro, and any other garnishes as desired.

TACO SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add the scallion whites and cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and soft, about 2 minutes. Add the beef and cook, stirring to break it up into small crumbles, until cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the taco and ranch seasonings until well combined.
• Add the tomatoes, beans, corn and 1 teaspoon salt. Fill one of the bean cans with water and add it to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the beans are warmed through, about 10 minutes.
• Serve in bowls with scallion greens, Cheddar, sour cream and pico de gallo.

TACO SOUP IN YOUR BLENDER

Steps:

• Blend all ingredients on high for 5 minutes. If you're using a Vitamix the soup will be steaming after 5 minutes - no need to heat this up on the stove after blending!
• Turn power down to level 4 and add a handful of multigrain tortilla chips (black bean and guacamole flavored chips have been really yummy too.) Blend for 10 seconds.
• If desired, turn down to level one and add some cooked chicken. This is a good way to make the soup more substantial and filling. You can also add some more beans and corn if you want the soup to be chunkier. Add salt and pepper to taste if necessary.
• I love this recipe because it's fast, it's delicious, it's 75% raw vegetables so I feel like I'm being super healthy, and I can put it in a thermos and drink it on the go.
