A chilli-like vegetarian tortilla soup. Tasty, filling, cheap, high protein, healthy, and amazingly easy. This is my own vegetarian (and less wicked-hot) version of a great recipe that circulated around my family. It's so easy. I'm the cook from the box type and it's really a cinch, even for me. It makes a huge amount of soup, so it's a great idea to freeze some. Go generic with all of the canned ingredients and this stuff costs next to nothing! If you prefer your soup hot hot hot, add a can of chilies. As this recipe is extremely flexible, don't worry if you can't find any of these ingredients in the exact size cans mentioned. I seem to pick up different sizes everytime, and it never causes any proplems. Can easily be vegan, as long as you pick the right fake meat.
Ingredients:
1 lb vegetarian ground beef (try morningstar's veggie crumbles)
1 (15 ounce) can chopped tomatoes or 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 (15 ounce) can chopped tomatoes and green chilies or 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes with mild green chilies
1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans
1 (15 ounce) can great northern beans
1 (15 ounce) can vegetarian broth (or v8, in a pinch)
1 (15 ounce) can white hominy, drained
1 (15 ounce) can corn
1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning
1 (1 ounce) package ranch dressing mix
Directions:
1. Put ground beef in a very large pot on the stove and sort of stir it to let it thaw.
2. Without draining any except for the hominy, add all of the canned ingredients to the pot and stir.
3. Stir in the dry taco seasoning and ranch dressing.
4. Cover and let simmer for 20-30 minutes.
5. Serve hot.
