I made this and it was, of course, different than my usual tortilla soup. If you are accustomed to trying different ways of trying things and appreciating the goodness of a simple soup like this, it turned out good. I added additional tortilla soup seasonings, like chili powder, onion powder, black pepper, etc and pulsed in lots of beans and corn, a handful of tortilla chips and more cilantro. Although it came out good, and the pulsed in ingredients stayed suspended throughout the soup, it came out warm, so I zapped a bowl in the microwave and had a couple servings. This was definitely very filling a healthy meal compared to the alternatives. I had leftovers the next day, heated up in the microwave, and it was still very good.
I make this frequently. It is always tasty. The hints from Blendtec users make it easy to vary the recipe
I just bought the 575 classic and I don’t have a "soup" button. Should I use the 90 second button instead?
I love this soup! I also put out extras to let the kids put in their favorite veggies or more herbs. For example, corn, beans, shredded carrot, shredded zucchini, extra cilantro, and avocado pieces. Don’t forget the crumbled tortilla chips. Omg! Delish!
I’m up to almost 1,000 uses in my machine and cannot wait for the next 1,000!!!
Thanks Blendtec!
