Cilantro Tortilla Soup with White Beans

This soup takes less than 7 minutes to make. It's has lots of texture and is very flavorful with it's tangy twist! It's good for you too.

What you'll need:
1/2 a bunch of cilantro (stems included)
1 can no salt added diced tomatoes
1 1/2 cup low sodium vegetable stock
1 can drained and rinsed white beans
1/2 tbl spoon brown sugar
1 lemon cut into wedges
sour cream
cayenne pepper
whole grain tortilla chips


First, throw your cilantro, tomato, brown sugar, and vegetable stock in the blender and puree. The color of this soup is a little strange but it tastes amazing so just go with it; the garnishes will dress it up.

Pour your puree into a pot and add the beans and the juice of 2 lime wedges. Bring it to a boil.

Serve with a dollop of sour cream, a pinch of cayenne, a twisted wedge of lemon, and a sprig of cilantro. Add some whole grain tortilla chips for a lightly salted crunch. That's it, you're done! Someone might think your having a Bloody Mary for lunch!
Delicious, healthy, and easy to make! Enjoy.
