Avocado Tortilla Soup
I snagged this amazing soup creation from the Vitamix Whole Foods Recipe Book. I was a little hesitant at first because of all the cilantro it called for which I am really not a fan of, but at the end, it turned out to be the BOMB! You can either serve this soup hot or chilled. You can probably do this with any type of food processor or large blender, but the instructions below calls for a Vitamix Blender.
Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Processing: 6-7 minutes
Yields: 5 cups
Here's what you need:
- 2 cups (480 ml) chicken or vegetable broth
- 5 roma tomatoes, quartered
- 1/3 bunch cilantro, stemmed
- 1 garlic clove, peeled
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 avocado, pitted, peeled
- 1/2 lime, peeled
- 1/2 cup (130g) organic canned black beans, drained
- 1/2 cup (100g) canned (drained) or fresh cooked corn kernels
- 2 ounces (56 g) tortilla chips, crushed
Processing:
1. Place all ingredients, except tortilla chips, into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure top lid.
2. Select Variable 1
3. Turn machine on and quickly increase speed to Variable 10, then to High
4. Blend for 6-7 minutes or until heavy steam escapes from the vented lid
5. Reduce speed to Variable 2 and remove the lid plug
6. Drop in tortilla chips through the lid plug opening. Blend for an additional 10 seconds
