I love soup recipes - they seem to feed everyone and leave me with extras! Here is one my favorites that I recently tried as a solar meal. This is another Rip Esselstyn recipe, and I love it. The fire roasted tomatoes are key.
Tortilla Soup
1 diced onion
1 diced red pepper
3 cups vegetable broth
2 Tbsp cumin
2 cans fire roasted tomatoes (15 oz each)
1 can chillies (8oz)
1 cup corn
1 1/2 cup black beans
Combine all ingredients, stir and solar cook covered for about 2 hours.
Top with avocado and crispy tortilla strips.
Now the crispy tortilla strips are really the best! I ate a ton of them yesterday. Just cut a tortilla (Gluten-free, of course) with a pizza cutter and then place on a baking pan in the solar cooker for about 45 minutes. Add a bit of salt if you like. They are crunchy and fabulous!
Rating: double yummy! Definitely will do this again, and the soup easily makes enough for 2 meals! Feel free to follow the rest of my cooking adventures at http://solarcookingchallenge.wordpress.com/. I am trying to cook in the solar cooker everyday for six months!
